For other uses, see Scone (disambiguation). A scone is a single-serving quick bread, usually made of wheat, barley or oatmeal with baking powder as a leavening agent and baked on sheet pans. A scone is often lightly sweetened and occasionally glazed with egg wash. The scone is a basic component of the cream tea or Devonshire tea. It differs from teacakes and other sweet buns that are made with yeast.
To bake, remove scones from the fridge or freezer, unwrap, and put on a lightly greased baking sheet (or simply unwrap and leave them in their pan). Preheat the oven to 350Â°F; the scones will warm up a bit as the oven heats.ake the scones 25 minutes (for the scone pan), or 30 minutes (for the baking cups or baking sheet), until lightly browned. Remove them from the oven and let them sit for 4 to 5 minutes to firm before removing them from the pan. Serve scones warm with butter and/or jam. Yield: 8 large scones.
