REMEMBER THAT IT’S IMPORTANT TO ALWAYS COOK UNDER ADULT SUPERVISION. SOMETIMES WE USE OBJECTS THAT COULD BE HARMFUL, LIKE A KNIFE, SO DON’T EVER ATTEMPT TO DO THESE RECIPES ALONE.

1. The first step is to have an adult preheat your oven to 425 degrees.
2. Now you’re going to take your flour, sugar, and baking powder and put it all together in your mixing bowl. 3 cups of flour, 1/2 cup sugar, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, 1 teaspoon salt. Now take a fork and mix it all together.
3. Now put all of your ingredients in the food processor. Process the butter and dry ingredients until the mixture looks like coarse corn meal.
4. Add the buttermilk and let the ingredients mix together until the dough forms itself into a ball.
5. Take the dough out of the machine and roll it out.
6. Lightly dust your counter top with flour. You need about one handful of flour. Now spread it out with your hands. Put your dough in the middle of the flour and pat it out with your finger tips into a 1 inch thick rectangle.
7. Fold the edges of the dough over to meet in the middle, covering the jam. Sprinkle the entire “log” with turbinado sugar. Now cut the dough into 8 equal strips. Use a pizza cutter to slice our scone “log.”
8. Now place your scones on an un-greased cookie sheet and we’ll bake them for 19 minutes.
9. Remove the scones from the oven and then let them cool down for 5 minutes.
