Step 1
Preheat oven to 400°F. Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and a pinch of salt in a bowl.
Step 2
Cut cold butter into the flour mixture with your fingertips until it looks like breadcrumbs.
Step 3
Pour in heavy cream and stir with a fork until a shaggy dough forms; don't overmix.
Step 4
Drop 8 golf-ball-sized portions onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing 2 inches apart.
Step 5
Bake until golden brown on top, 12–14 minutes. Scones should look dry and feel light.
Step 6
Serve warm scones split in half, topped with clotted cream, jam, marmalade, and sliced apples.
