Stir in 1/2 cup of milk and any desired add-ins like raisins or currants until just combined.

Tea and scones.
They are traditionally eaten with afternoon tea in places where they have afternoon tea. I like them for breakfast.
England is best known for tea and scones due to its rich cultural history surrounding tea drinking, which was popularized in the 17th century and became an integral part of British social life. The tradition of afternoon tea, introduced by Anna Maria Russell, the Duchess of Bedford, in the early 19th century, further cemented the practice of enjoying tea with light refreshments like scones. Scones, often served with clotted cream and jam, have become synonymous with this ritual, making them a quintessential part of English culinary culture. Together, tea and scones exemplify the British penchant for leisurely social gatherings.

Well, scones need fat as a bonding agent. All pastries do. Fats in scones also contribute to the flakiness of the scone. The solid fat is cut into the flour so that when you bake the scones, the fat melts and creates layers inside the scone.
To bake scones in a combination microwave, start by preparing your scone dough using flour, sugar, baking powder, butter, and milk. Shape the dough into rounds and place them on a microwave-safe dish. Set the microwave to a combination mode (microwave and convection) and preheat it. Bake the scones for about 10-15 minutes, checking for a golden color and a firm texture, ensuring they are cooked through.

Scones are more of a cake with raisins in that people normally put jam and cream in where as biscuits are hard and sometimes people dunk them in tea...
