Quick Fruit Scones
A quick and delicious way to rustle up a batch of warm fluffy scones in a matter of minutes. Delicious with butter and jam or as part of an afternoon tea. The base scone mix can be adapted to make a range of alternatives like cheese (with the addition of some grated cheddar), pistachio and cardamom (with the addition of some chopped pistachios and a little ground cardamom) or any other flavours you fancy experimenting with.
