Rob Oklahoma US here and I've had them before but I've used just butter on them and they are fantastic! I've never made them but since you make it look so easy I'm going to make them now! Thank you!

Nice recipe, my aunt always emphasised to not over-mix the dough and to use cream rather than milk but I see here you are using buttermilk so will try it your way for a change! Thank you for sharing.

I just found you. Today I told a friend I need to find a scone recipe because I’m tired of spending $9 for a box of mix. I’m so glad I found you, I’m going to try these as soon as I buy the buttermilk. Thank you!
