Scone

A scone is a small, often lightly sweetened baked good that originated in the United Kingdom. Made from flour, baking powder, butter, and milk or cream, they typically have a tender, crumbly texture. Scones can be plain or include ingredients like fruit, cheese, or herbs. They are commonly enjoyed during breakfast or as a snack, especially with clotted cream and jam. Their versatility and rich, buttery flavor make them a popular treat in teatime traditions, particularly in British cuisine.
