Scones (& Clotted Cream)

I’ve made scones a lot, but somehow I’ve never made plain scones. What better place to start than a recipe from Max Miller that’s similar to ones used around 1915. We also decided to make the clotted cream too just for the fun of it. Before I talk about the scone recipe I’ll start with…

Bacon, Cheese and Pomegranate Pastry Wreath

We LOVE Nueske’s bacon and I ran across this recipe in an email they sent around the holidays. While you can order their bacon from their website, you can also find them in Fresh Market as well. This is a really simple recipe, but it does take a little time since you need to cook…

Caramel Pecan Coffee Cake

Everything about this recipe excited me so I had high expectations for the final result! It’s a little time consuming if you’re making your own caramel though so keep that in mind. First let me start by saying that 3 hours for a breakfast dish is hard because I certainly don’t want to wake up…

Brown Butter Blueberry Muffins
I think blueberry muffins are one of my favorites and I’m always looking to try new recipes. This one looked good because it uses brown butter, which is always yummy! First you need to brown the butter as it needs to sit in the fridge for 20 minutes. While the steps don’t mention how to…

Kirschkuchen (Cherry Coffee Cake)

I’ve had this recipe on my to-bake list for a while so I was very excited to finally make it! It’s not a difficult recipe, but it is a bit time consuming to keep that in mind. You start off by making your own cherry pie filling. I thought it was a great idea to…

Cherry-Zucchini Scones

I’m kicking off a month of cherry inspired bakes while also paying homage to a little over a month of scone recipes. This recipe intrigued me because I love cherry, but the zucchini part really weirded me out a little. The recipe isn’t hard so you put all the dry ingredients together, add the dried…

Herb & Cheddar Scones

Happy National Scone Day! Here’s another savory scone for you to try and if you’ll notice I’m back to cheddar. 🙂 I’m going to start by saying that I shifted gears at the last minute as to which recipe to use, so I did not have chives or fresh thyme. I’ll go ahead and note…

Starbucks Blueberry Scones

Okay, I’ve made blueberry scones several times before (here and here), but I thought I’d try another recipe because I feel like I haven’t quite found my go-to recipe yet. This recipe is a little different from some of the others I’ve tried because it calls for greek yogurt but otherwise very standard. I felt…

Bakery-Style Cranberry Orange Scones

I made these Cranberry Scones ages ago so I thought it would be fun to try another recipe. I made these scones for a little Galentine’s Day brunch I hosted back in February and they were a hit! This is a pretty standard scone recipe so nothing too difficult here. I did not have any…

Chocolate Chip Scones

I actually made these scones a year ago and frozen them to eat later and was really disappointed with how they turned out. They were really flat and while they tasted good I could also tell they were tough (meaning I over mixed the dough). I have a feeling maybe my baking powder was older…
