But seriously, folks...
Today, I bring you Part III of my continuing series
Better Know a Breakfast Bread: Scones
Bagels and English Muffins were only the beginning....
Today we bring you scones!!
Today's Fun Fact to Know and Tell Your Friends: there is a raging debate about the pronunciation of the word "scone"; seriously, go google it...I'll wait.....as you can see, some pronounce it "scone" (rhymes with "gone") and others say "scon" (as in "bun")...who knew?

First, toast the oats

Mix the butter with the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt...

...like so

Then mix the flour/butter mixture with milk, cream, egg and toasted oats

Move the dough to a work surface

Shape into a circle about 7" in diameter

There was some math involved, but I bravely soldiered on and cut the circle into 8 pieces

Brush on a little of the egg/milk mixture and sprinkle on some sugar. I found reusable parchment at Sur La Table in the Ferry Building in San Francisco

Baked

Now, if only I liked tea...
