Fried Scones
This is for when you have a lot of time and want a delicious change of pace. Making scones is as much about figuring out a good stove setup, as it is about the scones. I used TrailDesigns sidewinder stove, which has an alcohol stove with a simmer ring which stops down the flame, and a cone for supporting the pot, or in this case a fry pan. I used the lid of an Evernew 1.9 L pot as the fry pan
To a bowl, add half a cup of a complete scone mix by Sticky Fingers, about 2 Tsp water, 1 tsp of brown sugar, about 13 blueberries, and mixed to a thick paste.
In the fry pan I added 1/2 oz of olive oil from a singles pack, and heated over the stopped down alcohol flame. I dropped in the scone mix, and let it fry for 15 minutes, then flipped it over with a small spatula.
The resultant scone wasn’t pretty, burned in places, raw in places, but it was delicious. I’d eat it in the backcountry any time. Some practice with this setup would pay off.
