It is hard to pinpoint the issue but I have noticed that I have had to adjust almost all of my recipes when baking in the South vs in the PNW. I don't know if it would help but someone below suggested sifting the flour first.

Although scon...Thank you very much for this recipe! Although scones at the fair are lovely, I can't justify paying so much for them anymore. If these are even CLOSE, I'll be thrilled!<br /><br />Hope this helps anybody with "too much" flour trouble: If it's humid and/or damp where you live (WA definitely!), sift the flour first because it compacts over time. I have carefully measured 3 cups, but after sifting, I've ended up with as much as 1/2 cup more!! Usually only 1/3 cup more, but still - that's quite a bit! <br /><br />Also, lucky Southern folks can get their hands on (wonderful, heavenly!) White Lily and other superior flours. It took me years to figure out why I couldn't duplicate Grandma Clemmie's biscuits - and it was all due to the flour! I have to order it and pay a ton for shipping, but it's all I use for biscuits and scones. Husband used to call my biscuits hardtack - ha! <br /><br />I'm trying your recipe next Sunday for breakfast and will let you know! Thank you!!!<br /><br />TinaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5998625450434970.post-55342068900024916442016-06-04T12:00:38.946-04:002016-06-04T12:00:38.946-04:00Thanks for the recipe, Nel!

A few things come to mind - make sure the baking powder is not expired and don't mix the dough too much. Another thing I have noticed is that some of my old "go to" recipes in Washington don't always turn out the same in Tennessee - I don't know if it's the altitude, weather, or what! I haven't made these in a long time but I will make them soon and see if I can figure out exactly what's going on. Thank you both for the feedback!

I think there may be too much flour. I also had to add more milk because it was so dry and crumbly that it wouldnt come together. the bottoms were hard compared to other scone recipes I have had and also there was no fluff like in the picture. I was just at the fair and I was really hoping that this would turn out.

Do you think this is where I went wrong? Is the dough supposed to be a little dry? Any advice is appreciated because I'd love to try them again.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02718096956825199215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5998625450434970.post-27719327181799433802015-09-15T16:06:42.780-04:002015-09-15T16:06:42.780-04:00Hello!
