Jam Scones

These Jam Scones are light, flakey and delicious. And the recipe is so easy, it is a great way to get the kids involved in the kitchen.

I love it when I find a recipe that it is as fun to make as it is to eat. It is even more fun when you can get the kids involved in the kitchen and the baking process.  

This recipe is a great opportunity to teach the kids some baking techniques.
