OUR FINEST BUTTERMILK SCONES

A classic plain scone like this can play many roles. It can be a slightly sweet sidekick with soups or stews, a tasty base for fruit shortcakes or a toothsome snack with tea or coffee. It's also delightful split and spread with jam at a holiday brunch, and the perfect starting point for three tasty variations.

PUMPKIN SCONES WITH WHIPPED BROWN BUTTER ICING

MINI LEMON SCONES WITH STRAWBERRIES AND CREAM

TATTIE SCONES

These Scottish potato scones are not your typical fluffy tea biscuits; they're more like potato-based flatbread. Use floury baking potatoes rather than all-purpose or new potatoes. Tattie scones are fantastic served hot with butter to accompany chowder, or cold, spread with jam, as part of a breakfast fry-up.
