My Enduring Love Affair with Scones

It’s no secret to those who know me that scones hold a special place in my heart when it comes to baking. Indeed, the very first recipe I ever shared on Accidental Happy Baker was for scones, a testament to my profound affection for these humble yet elegant baked goods. I even curate a dedicated Pinterest board filled with nothing but incredible scone recipes. Perhaps my initial fascination stemmed from countless hours lost in historical fiction novels, picturing young governesses enjoying delicate scones at tea, contemplating the enigmatic masters of grand estates. Whatever its origin, that fascination has blossomed into a genuine, deep-seated love.

Every step of the scone-making process feels like reconnecting with an old friend. For me, scones strike the perfect balance between ease and engagement. They’re quick to prepare, yet they allow me to get my hands right into the dough, feeling its texture and shaping it with care. There’s a satisfying, almost magical transformation that happens, and then, voilà, they’re ready for the oven. This hands-on, relatively quick process is a welcome contrast to bread baking, which often involves that “meddlesome rising part” in the middle, demanding patience I sometimes lack. While I’ve explored many sweet scone variations over the years, these Sweet Potato Sage Scones mark my first serious foray into the world of savory scones. And oh, how perfectly the word “savory” describes them!
