  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 stick cold margarine (or butter), cut into chunks

How to make it:

  • Pick up & place slices on baking sheet
  • Bake for 12-14 minutes or until lightly browned

    Note

  • When cool, wrap any scones you're not eating

  • in microwave for about 30 sec. or in the oven.
  • Scones dry out quickly, this way they taste like they were just baked.
