SCOTTISH PANCAKES (DROP SCONES)

SCOTTISH PANCAKES (DROP SCONES)

These are best when served completely fresh. If left too long they become a little flabby and rubbery. 1 cup self-rising flour 1/8 to 1/4 cup white sugar 1 egg Pinch of salt Milk, a little less than a cup

Mix all the ingredients, adding milk one tablespoon at a time until batter is consistency of thick cream. (It should not be so thick that it doesn't obligingly drop off the spoon.)

Heat a lightly greased griddle or heavy frying pan to medium high.

Carefully drop slightly less than a tablespoon of batter at a time on the griddle. Batter should spread to about 2 1/2 inches in diameter. As soon as bubbles show on upper surface, turn pancake over. (Practice, alone, makes perfect.)

Makes 14-18 pancakes.

Best eaten warm with butter or jam or honey.

Why is Christian Science in our name?

Our name is about honesty. The Monitor is owned by The Christian Science Church, and we’ve always been transparent about that.

The Church publishes the Monitor because it sees good journalism as vital to progress in the world. Since 1908, we’ve aimed “to injure no man, but to bless all mankind,” as our founder, Mary Baker Eddy, put it.

Here, you’ll find award-winning journalism not driven by commercial influences – a news organization that takes seriously its mission to uplift the world by seeking solutions and finding reasons for credible hope.
