Recipe #15 of NEWrecipes52 ...

A simple breakfast recipe of drop scones with cinnamon butter was on today's menu.

I started out by preparing the cinnamon butter; simply combine butter with icing sugar and ground cinnamon ...


I forgot to take a photo of the next step, but basically I wrapped the prepared butter in clingfilm, then rolled into a tight sausage shape and put in back in the fridge to keep chilled until needed.

Next up was making the drop scone mixture, which is essentially a thick pancake batter, made from 4 basic ingredients of flour, sugar, milk and egg ...


Whisk all together into a smooth, lump free batter ...


I cooked tablespoon size dollops of the batter in a frying pan, with a little melted butter, over a low to medium heat. You'll know when it's time to flip the drop scone, as little air bubbles appear all over the surface ...


Flip 'um and delight at their golden goodness ...


Them stack 'um high and pop a teaspoon of the cinnamon butter on top and let it melt and drizzle over the sides ...


What a GREAT way to start the day!
