Let the scones cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving. Enjoy warm with your favorite toppings!
For best results, use cold buttermilk and avoid overmixing the dough to ensure a tender crumb.
Add 1/2 cup of your favorite mix-ins, such as dried cranberries, blueberries, chocolate chips, or grated cheddar cheese, for a customized twist.
Brush the tops of the scones with a little melted butter or cream before baking for a golden-brown crust.
Scones are best enjoyed fresh, but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. Reheat gently before serving.

Jun 15, 2024I've tried other scone recipes before, but this one is the best. The scones are light and fluffy, not dense like some others I've made.
