I like these scones. For something peanut butter, that is. They’re kind of craggy and rustic, and very hearty. And different – I’ve never seen a scone recipe like this. It’s one of the reasons I love the Baked books. The recipe calls for chunky peanut butter, and there’s even a recipe for chunky peanut [...]

We’re not the type of people to stick hard to tradition. And neither one of us has family close and we don’t like to travel during the holidays, so we usually spend them with friends. I grew up in a Catholic family where tradition was what made everything right in the world. Year after year, [...]
I love scones, but it turns out I don’t particularly like meaty scones. Bacon is good and all, but it doesn’t make everything better. I like a variety of types of scones – from a light, delicate cream scone, to a hearty oat scone. They’re all good. And it’s fine with a bit of flavoring [...]

I baked two separate batches of these scones, which really are easy to make. I didn’t have raisins, so one batch of scones got currants and [...]
This is another hearty scone recipe from Baked. Like all of the other Baked scone recipes, they’re tender and heavy on the butter (so much so that the pan is usually coated with melted butter by the time they’re finished baking). I started making these while Larry was out for a run – what’s better [...]
I didn’t expect to like these scones. Carrot, ew. And I figured Larry wouldn’t like them either since he doesn’t like shredded coconut. I was wrong on both counts. They’re not too carrot-y, not too coconut-y. The coconut adds a really nice texture. The scones are hearty and not too sweet. The citrus glaze is [...]
These hearty scones aren’t too sweet and were a nice breakfast treat. Not too maple-y, although I don’t particularly like nuts in my scones. I’d say I probably like Abby Dodge’s version from The Weekend Baker a little better. Maple Walnut Scones (Baked: New Frontiers in Baking, p. 29)
