Afternoon Tea in Twenty Minutes

Don’t you love spontaneous invitations to afternoon tea? I do! But I also love taking home-baked goods when I visit friends. I’ve got a new recipe that has come to your rescue for when you’ve had that last-minute invite.

What’s even better, is that if you take advantage of the gloriously gross long-life cream, you’ll always have the ingredients on hand. I’ve never been one to buy long-life dairy products until we moved to the outback. But I am a changed woman- they are an essential here.

Enter: the lightest, fluffiest (and super quick and easy) tea scones. They are so fast to whip up (you can even use your stand-mixer with a dough hook, if you desire), and only take about 12 minutes in a hot oven.

So print up the recipe and get baking. Your kids are going to love some delicious warm scones for an afternoon snack.
