These were terrific. Over the past 2 days I have made and frozen, uncooked, the apple cinnamon, cranberry orange and savory bacon cheddar chive scones for Thanksgiving weekend. My husband and I decided we ought to test one of each this morning, just to make sure we wouldn't disappoint our guests. So while I was preheating the oven to 425 convection/bake mode (as opposed to true convection -never sure which to use) I brushed the tops of the scones with cream. Once the oven was preheated, I popped them in and set timer for 20 minutes. I wanted to put the sugar on the sweet scone half way through cooking because I was worried it would burn if the scones were in for 45 minutes. Guess what? They were done at 20 min! In fact the sweet scones were a bit over done. They were great. Glad I tested.
