Freezing Baked Goods

Wrap the scones individually with plastic wrap before placing them in a plastic freezer bag.

I just made a batch of Scottish Oatmeal Scones with currants for Ken who is a dear family member.

Knowing that that he won't be able to eat them all at once and wanting them to stay fresh,  I prepared them for freezing by individually wrapping the scones in plastic wrap and putting them into a freezer bag.

Baked goods freeze very well and now Ken has a stockpile of scones and he can eat them at his leisure.

When Ken wants to have a scone all he has to do is pull one out of the freezer and let it thaw to room temperature or unwrap a frozen scone and heat it in a microwave for 20 to 30 seconds - so easy and so good with a cup of tea.

Be sure to write the date on the bag. Frozen baked goods are best enjoyed within two months of freezing.
