As one of you out there mentioned, it might be made with home made pumpkin soup too. In fact, that might be even better! (As a mate said at the pub tonight -- "Pumpkin scones made with tinned soup?... Well I suppose they might at least be yellow!"😉
Ah, now that sounds 'doable'. (I want scones now!) --
Mind you, I always find the lemonade scone recipe to be pretty quick and easy.
That recipe is so easy and successful. I use mineral water over lemonade (fussy about 'real' food) and they are so light and fluffy, and cane be made savoury so easily with other yummies added. --

On further thought, I wonder if these would come out more like dumplings? (Or individual Yorkshire puds)... --

Very possibly, since my Mum uses scone dough to make her dumplings 😉 I've got a coupling of dumpling recipes also that sound very similar to scones - just cooked differently.

Yes, exactly. OT - tried the store bought 'Yorkshire Puds" from ALDI on the weekend at a friends. They are like vol-au-vent (sp) cases, not at all like a traditional pud. (Tasty though!)
(PS - Spell check wants to change vol-au-vent to flatulent. Ha!) --

Another demonstration of Microsoft's prescience, perhaps? (The flatulence will come later. 🙂

I can't work up an enthusiasm to try it. It isn't that hard to make the ordinary kind! (Well, I suppose it depends how many you make!)

No rubbing in of butter is what does it for me. I hate rubbing in the butter so being able to pour 2 ingredients into some flour and stirring with a knife is much more appealing. .... and is quicker (for me anyway). ....and I find the lemonade scones to be a bit lighter and fluffier than the normal kind.

that pumpkin soup used to (?) have a recipe on the side for a pasta sauce, was yum. Sure, full of fat, but yum. and dead easy.
and for the yanks, Campbell's soup has a long running ad campaign in the US. Maybe they don't sell the Pumpkin kind though. Although I'm pretty sure I've seen it there.

a lot gets lots in translation doesnt it?!
yep. In the US, they're called Biscuits. they serve them with sloppy stews, for soaking up the gravy. Sort of south-western food.
Nothing like our scones with jam and cream, which are english.

The most common differences between biscuits and scones are that scones include sugar and egg yolk (or whole egg). Not always, of course.
