Grandma Skinners Griddle Scones Recipe

Yield: 16 scones
Recipe by luhu.jp

Ingredients:
3 cup: flour,
1 1/2 teaspoon: salt,
1 1/2 teaspoon: baking soda,
1 1/2 teaspoon: cream of tartar,
1 teaspoon: sugar,
1 tablespoon: butter,
1 1/2 cup: buttermilk,

Directions:

Sift all of the dry ingredients together into a bowl. By hand, rub the
butter into the flour, making small cornmeal-like granules. Add
buttermilk all at once. Working quickly but gently, mix with a dinner
knife (spoons overwork the dough, making a tough scone) until the
dough is just barely mixed. Add a little more buttermilk if
necessary, but dont make the dough sticky.

Divide the dough into quarters. On a floured board, roll out each
quarter into a circle 1/4" thick. Cut each circle into quarters. Bake
the scones in batches on a medium-hot (350

F) lightly greased griddle
for a few minutes, until lightly golden. Turn and cook the other
side. Now brown all the edges in turn by standing the triangles up
and leaning them against each other for about 30 seconds. As the
scones come off the griddle, cool in a tea towel until ready to use.
