Griddle Scones

Early yesterday evening, I made a start on baking the Tipsy cake. Once I had got it in the oven, urged on by my children, I started making the griddle scones. Although I started my baking challenge on 5th January, and so technically I have until then to finish it, in the kids minds, the challenge needed to be finished by the end of the year.
At least this recipe was fairly straight forward, and this time, I put the frying pan on to warm as soon as I started. I have made the mistake in the past of leaving it until after I had made the mixture, and then the pan wasn't warm enough.
This time, everything went to plan, and I didn't burn anything. As you can see from the photo, the scones turned out golden brown.
The only problem with them, and this has been an issue for everything I have cooked on the frying pan, the middle did not seem baked enough, despite cooking them for longer than the suggested time.
These scones did not score very highly - a disappointing 6.0. I have a feeling that had I made them in the summer and covered them with strawberries and cream they would have done a lot better, but after all the festive food that we have eaten, they were rather a disappointment. My verdict is that if you are going to bake scones, do it in the oven!!
My final post for the New year Tipsy Cake will appear tomorrow as, although it was baked last night, it needs assembling in preparation for our family celebrations today.
