How To Make Delicious SCONES At Home | Dessert People
One of the great things about baking is discovering that you can make a pastry at home that tastes better than one from a cafe. On this episode of Dessert People, pastry chef Natasha Pickowicz shows Claire how to do just that — and in the process, convinces her that a proper scone can be tender, light, flavorful, and not at all dry. Check out the episode for all the secrets to making a scone so good that it will change the mind of scone skeptics everywhere.

Natasha is such wonderful and generous teacher! This recipe is a game changer for any one making Scones at home. Thanks for watching!

Hahah a reoccurring segment on Dessert People where the guests try to find space in Claire's fridge would be hilarious

[dentonlister]

The little bonding moment over the left handedness was adorable

[VerdeFlowerCo]

What I love about this series and about Claire, is that we see just how much of a good communicator and good cook she is - people don't always hit the mark when having a guest on in terms of stepping back and letting them teach, but Claire always seems to give people the space to teach and and it really comes across on screen. There is no ego to it, and it helps me as the viewer feel so much more like I'm involved. Amazing work team - more more more!!

what I love is the small kitchen (real) full refrigerator (real) packed freezer (real again) and bumping into another helper in the kitchen. Claire keep it real. It makes me happy.

The scone crumb hitting Claire's mic at 17:52 made my day for some reason.

[quinnlewis]

They're such "baker" personalities. Very analytical, direct and calculated. It's so great 😂

[SoyOllin]

I think Claire with anyone else in the kitchen is a recipe for chaos, and that's the best.

so….to be a true dessert person do i also need a cat? seems like all the best dessert people have them!

I want a TV show with these two traveling the globe baking wonderful things. And solving crimes.

[agotisan]

Love this show!

As if Claire wasn’t knowledgeable enough, she manages to have guests that even more knowledgeable on a specific topic ❤️

Loved Natasha’s expertise on scone making! I will definitely be adopting most of these techniques in my scone making ❤️

I have a girls cottage weekend coming up and I feel that Claire will be attending in spirit as I am the baker and will be bringing her bagels, these scones, and a dessert from the book. Thank you Claire for making me look so good!!

[chesterstefan]

This episode honestly flew by. Can't wait to try this on the weekend!

[Jbirdjr]

wow Natasha is such a good teacher, her explanations were so clear

[sydneyduke]

Claire, you’re amazing!!! I wish Natasha directed her comments more towards the camera (us) rather than Claire (a professional who obviously knows how to use a bench scraper, where to place the hot pan of scones, when to brush buttermilk on the scones lol). I admire Claire so much and love how she can make anyone feel like they can bake. She’s so humble and a great teacher!

[kewpiebaby]

I bought Dessert Person last week and i’ve already made 3 recipes! Everything is so delicious and well explained, thank you Claire! ❤️

[costaspapageorgiou]

These videos are my favorite and just seeing her going from literally hating being on camera to having her own YouTube channel with all her own recipes just make me soo happy 💞💞

[rockssocks]

Omg the little animations on the mixer were so so cute 😍

[danielsotheraccount]

Please do more of these premiere interactions with viewers in the future, that was awesome! Thanks, Claire!

Did you see the smile on that cat’s face? He is living his best life.
