Classic and Contemporary Scone Recipes

Scones are a delightful treat that perfectly straddle the line between a comforting breakfast and a satisfying afternoon snack. Whether served warm with a dollop of clotted cream and jam, or simply enjoyed plain, scones bring a touch of specialness to any occasion. Try my small-batch, perfect buttermilk scones, classic Blueberry scones or my personal favourite, Rose and Turkish delight scones!. I even got my hands on the famous The Tea Room's Fabulous Scone Recipe!! For more baked treats, check out my breads collection, pastries, and biscuits and cookies.

Orange Cranberry Scones
Featured Recipe Orange Cranberry Scones

When I made these orange and cranberry scones, I knew that they had to be out of my kitchen quickly. Mainly because the last time I made scones I couldn't stop eating them fresh from the oven. It is based on the pumpkin scone recipe which was inspired by my friend Maureen's biscuit recipe. I have been reading about the orange and cranberry pairing on lots of blogs and wasn't a pairing that I have tried very much before but I was reassured that the two fruit are magical together. These scones are shaped like triangles which is often how they serve scones in America. It's a bit easier than cutting out rounds and another thing that Americans do at times is ice their scones with frosting.
