Fennel and cheese scones are a delightful twist on the classic scone, offering a rich and savory flavor profile. Made with cheddar cheese, chives, and a hint of mustard, these scones are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or an afternoon snack. The fennel seeds add a slight anise-like aroma that beautifully complements the cheesy goodness. Follow this simple recipe to bake these mouthwatering scones at home.
- Use cold butter to achieve flaky scones. You can even place the butter in the freezer for a few minutes before using.
- Do not overmix the dough. Overmixing can lead to dense scones. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- For perfectly round scones, use a biscuit cutter. Dip the cutter in flour before each cut to prevent sticking.
- Brush the tops of the scones with a little buttermilk before baking for a nice golden finish.
- You can add a sprinkle of sea salt on top of the scones before baking for an extra burst of flavor.
Congratulations! You've made your own fennel and cheese scones. These delicious scones are best enjoyed warm, straight out of the oven with a knob of butter. Perfect for any time of the day, they are sure to become a family favorite. Feel free to experiment with different cheeses or add a dash of your favorite spices to customize the recipe to your liking.
