1
Preheat oven to 425 (Fahrenheit).
2
Mix flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and cream of tartar together in a large bowl.
3
Cut in butter with a fork or pastry cutter until dough resembles coarse crumbs.
4
Add dried fruit and nuts -- we prefer 1/2 cup craisins and 1/2 cup chopped pecans, but really any combination will do.
5
Add milk with a fork until just mixed. Knead briefly.
6
Divide dough into two balls, and pat each into a round about 1/2-inch high. Using a sharp knife, cut each round into six or eight triangular-shaped pieces (depending on size).
7
If desired, brush scones with a bit of cream and sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
8
Bake on parchment for 10-12 minutes, or until bottoms are golden brown.
