What are you baking? March 2023

Blueberry Oat Drop Scones from the Standard Baking Co. Pastries cookbook.

I ordered the book last night, but couldn’t wait to receive it, and made the scones from the flip book shared and discussed up-thread. I made a half batch and used a #10 cookie scoop for six generous scones.

I liked these quite a bit. They are not at all sweet – for 300 g. of flour the full recipe calls for all of 4 T. of brown sugar. Thus, the cream and butter flavors come through nicely, as do the blueberries. This is a plus, in my book, as I’m not a fan of cloyingly sweet baked goods. Will make again.

I also baked a big orange cake from Gateau – deets on the BCOTM thread here.
