Very thoughtful of you,
little Jeremiah! Thank you so much.. This recipe sounds delicious and super easy! I love cake recipes that use vinegar.. very tasty!
I’ll see my nephew and his family in a week and a half.. I’ll give them the recipes then. I’ll ask his wife if she has any recipes to share. Thanks again!

I have many, many more. I will post as I have time, so you can check back when you want. I have a delicious Christmans Pannetone (sp?) bread, usually has a lot of eggs.

Here’s my scone recipe. Usually scones have an egg, from recipes I looked up. Eggless but delicious scones.

In one bowl:
3 cups flour [I often use half white and half ww. pastry flour]
1 c. sugar
1 1/2 t. salt
4 t. baking powder
1/2 t. baking soda
Whisk together well
Chop up in little pieces into the dry ingredients:
1 stick of cold butter (not margarine!) and mix into coarse crumbles with fingers.

Note: If making non-sweet scones, cut way back on the sugar, to 1 T or so, try and see what works. In that case you can add grated cheese, preferably sharp, instead of dried fruit.

Then add 1 cup milk with optional 2 t. vanilla mixed in. Stir with fork until all incorporated. Divide into two halves, you may need to sprinkle flour on the dough to handle without stickiness. Shape into two balls, flatten with your hand in the pan to 5 to 6 inches, cut each into 6 pieces, and slightly separate or pull out wedges so they have a little space between them. Bake for 22 minutes and check for doneness on the sides, if need be bake a few minutes more.

Optional yummy additions: 1 to 2 cups of any dried fruits, nuts, or fresh fruit like blueberries to the dry ingredients after butter is mixed in If using frozen blueberries, sprinkle flour on them first to avoid the purple/grey effect.

I used about 1 1/2 cups of minced black raisins, dried apricots and walnuts. And 1 T. of grated orange peel*. Handle the dough gently. Can be brushed with milk and sugar sprinkled before baking to make sparkly.

*If using orange peel I recommend using only organic oranges as citrus fruit is sprayed and dipped into really strange stuff, not what you want to eat.
