The Great British Bake Off’s Paul Hollywood reveals why he’s ‘always fighting’ with Mary Berry

THE Great British Bake Off's Paul Hollywood has revealed why he's 'always fighting' with Mary Berry.

Paul, 56, judged Bake Off alongside Mary, 87, for seven series before it moved to Channel 4 in 2016.

While he now critiques the bakers alongside Prue Leith, Paul is still in touch with Mary.

However, he has revealed there is one thing the pair are "always fighting" about in his latest Twitter post.

Sharing a picture of a delicious looking scone with jam and cream, he wrote: "I am forever fighting with Mary about scones.

"She comes from the tradition of using plain flour in scones but in the professional industry you use strong flour.

"When you make scones with strong flour you’ll see the difference!"

However fans were equally divided on the matter, with one replying: "All I'm saying is there's not much Mary Berry could bake that I wouldn't eat so..."

Another added: "I’ve tried a lot of different scone recipes but your one from Bake is the closest to what the best childhood scones were. You win - bread flour & Bake all the way!"

A third tweeted: "...I didn't even know that was a debate...of course it's strong flour....scones aren't meant to be soft and fluffy, you need more structure."

Meanwhile a fourth shared: "I use my late grandmother’s recipe, plain flour of course, butter,jam then clotted cream."

A fellow fan joked: "I'm sure I'm not alone in that I would pay a good amount of money to watch you and Mary argue about anything related to baking."
