Jamie Oliver’s savoury scones are the base of the recipe, but they might be a little different than the big, sweet bakery scones you’re used to. English scones are like American biscuits (and in England, biscuits are cookies…it’s a bit confusing). You make them in a similar way, by cutting butter into flour to form the base of the dough.
Almond Milk – You can use almond milk or heavy whipping cream to create a delicious low carb scone. You can also brush a little heavy whipping cream on the top of the scones for a crispy top. Coconut Oil – You can use coconut oil or unsalted butter as the fat in this recipe. Cold butter/cold coconut oil are the key to creating the perfect scones.
Method First and foremost, brilliant scones are about having the confidence to do as little as possible, so do what I say and they’ll be really great; and the second and third time you make them you'll get the dough into a solid mass even quicker, even better. Put the dried fruit into a bowl and pour over just enough orange juice to cover.
