This has to be one of the most intriguing recipes ever. My Mum sent it to me this week so I decided to film the first time I used it. I can’t accredit the actual person who did the recipe as I don’t know their name but I can say it was in the Cockpen and Carrington Church Newsletter.

All scones are magic! Jam and cream, just completes the spell.
would this work with different types of flour?
I’d imagine you’d need to use baking powder if using plain flour, probably at least two tsps worth to combat the double cream
