Scone Recipe Ingredient - Baking Powder
Scone recipes use no yeast but use baking powder instead. This core ingredient is used to make thse scones rise.
Baking powder is normally made of three different parts - An acid, a filler and a base
Baking powder works in a similar way to baking soda.
The dry acid and base go into the scone recipe solution and start reacting to produce carbon dioxide bubbles which helps the baking process and the scones to rise.
