Recipe Introduction

This is the scone recipe I make the most - the oatmeal adds nutrition and I like to serve them with honey or lemon curd...Look under Jams and jellies for an easy microwave recipe for lemon curd and Devonshire cream.

1/4 cup sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cube butter
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
