3 Ingredient Lemonade Scones Recipe

The recipe really does use just three ingredients. So the scones cost about $2 a batch to make. They are quick and easy, they are fabulous for cooking with kids, and they can be cooked in either the oven or the slow cooker.

What? Why on earth would you want to cook scones in a slow cooker?!! Well, I can think of a couple of reasons…

Reason #1. Baked goods cooked in the slow cooker are incredibly moist.

Reason #2. Baking in the slow cooker means I can pop these in just after lunch and they will be deliciously warm just in time for school pick up and afternoon tea!

Reason #3. Baking in the slow cooker is fabulous if your oven is out of action, or if you feel like baking but don’t want to heat up the house. But no matter how you cook them, I think you’ll enjoy this recipe for Lemonade Scones.

So what are the three ingredients you will need for this lemonade scones recipe? Lemonade, self raising flour and thickened cream…that’s it!

You’ll find the complete recipe below but for those who are cooking in a slow cooker, here are a few tips;

  • Line the slow cooker with baking paper. Place the scones inside slow cooker so that they are touching.
  • Place a tea towel under the lid of the slow cooker as the scones bake. The tea towel stops the condensation that forms under the slow cooker’s lid from dripping down onto the scones. People have raised concern with me about this but as the tea towel is nowhere near an open heating element I have no problem with it. That being said, I work from home so our slow cooker is rarely left unattended.

You may find that scones cooked in the slow cooker are missing the same golden top of oven baked scones but the delicious, crusty base sure makes up for it!

Using just three ingredients, a batch of scones made with this Lemonade Scone Recipe cost about $2! They are great for cooking with kids too.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups self raising flour, plus a little extra
  • 1 cup lemonade
  • 1 cup of thickened cream
  • Jam and cream for serving

Instructions

  1. If baking in the oven, preheat oven to 180ºC (fan forced). If cooking in the slow cooker, turn onto high to preheat.
  2. Sift flour into a large mixing bowl.
  3. Add cream and lemonade and mix to combine. Finish mixing with hands, adding a little extra flour if the mix is particularly sticky - beware however, you DO want the dough to stay slightly tacky.
  4. Turn out onto a well floured board and knead minimally - don't over handle. Flatten or roll to approximately 2-2.5cm thickness and cut out rounds with a glass or scone cutter.
  5. If oven baking, place scones onto a lined baking tray so that they are lightly touching. Brush with a little milk and bake until golden brown, approximately 15 minutes.
  6. If slow cooker baking, line the slow cooker with baking paper. Place scones inside slow cooker so that they are touching. Place a tea towel under the lid of the slow cooker and bake for 1 1/2 hours.

Notes

  • When cooked in the slow cooker, scones may not have the same golden top of oven baked scones but the delicious, crusty base more than makes up for it.
  • The tea towel under the lid stops the condensation that forms under the slow cooker’s lid from dripping down onto the scones. People have raised concern with me about using a tea towel in this way but as it is nowhere near an open heating element I have no problem with it. That being said, I work from home so our slow cooker is rarely left unattended. Use your best judgment.

  1. Is this traditional US lemonade or 7-up/Sprite?

    1. I am in Australia, Gabi, and our lemonade is a lot like Sprite.

  2. Could you substitute lemonade for mineral water or another fizzy drink?
