Awesome base recipe! If you only want a plain scone with jam use the original recipe. If you want to jazz it up put what you like in eg. lemon rind and blueberries,or apples and cinnamon,or etc etc. If you want a sweeter scone you could add extra sugar which I did as I was not using with jam. I also replaced milk with yogurt as that is what I had.I also make individual scones just drop them on and flatten a bit with hand.

This was excellent! I was so impressed that it turned out. I did add an extra egg as many reviewers suggested. The one thing I did do that I won't do again is used real vanilla bean and it made it a bit crunchy as I think I added to much but that was my own fault. Also following other reviewers advice on making the carmel sauce. I did not stir the sugar until it started to liquify then stirred. It takes time and if it is clumping stop stirring it is too soon. Also warm pan in oven before pouring in carmel sauce and then cook in water bath.

Excellent muffin recipe! Only change I made was to use plain yogurt in place of vanilla because that is what I had. The kids love them and they're healthy! You probably could reduce sugar content by 1/4 of cup if you are going to use the topping to make it even healthier.
