Bigger Bolder Baking’s Gemma Stafford On Her Best-Ever Irish Scones

She's My Cherry Pie

Today’s guest is Gemma Stafford, the Irish chef, baker, and host behind the “Bigger Bolder Baking” YouTube show and website. She’s also the author of two books, “Bigger Bolder Baking: A Fearless Approach to Baking Anytime, Anywhere,” and “Bigger Bolder Baking Every Day: Easy Recipes to Bake Through a Busy Week.”

She joins host Jessie Sheehan to talk about the Best-Ever Irish Scones. The duo chat about textures, key ingredients like self-raising flour and frozen butter, and how to get a slightly sweet, crunchy exterior but moist interior. Because, as Gemma says, scones should never be dry!

Want to bake along? Here is Gemma’s recipe for her Best-Ever Irish Scones.
