Tomato and Herb Scones a Flaky Savory Treat

January 28, 2020 Filed Under: Breads

I have a treat for you today. Buttery, flaky scones studded with sun dried tomatoes and fresh herbs. These Tomato and Herb Scones are amazing!

Scones are ridiculously easy to make. Basically, they are just biscuits with more cream and butter. Normally I make sweet ones like these:

Lightly sweet and flowery Honey Lavender Scones are a simple treat for breakfast or tea time.

But these savory ones were great for breakfast, snack and even along with dinner one night.

I used fresh chives from my garden because the basil is about an inch high right now and I wasn’t in the mood for rosemary. All three would be great individually or all together or any fresh herbs you’d like.

  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 2 teaspoons sugar
  • 4 tablespoons cold butter
  • 1/4 cup sun dried tomatoes chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh herbs basil, chives, oregano, rosemary, etc (finely chopped)
  • 2/3 cups heavy cream

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Combine flour, salt, baking powder and sugar in a medium bowl.
  • Cut in the butter and mix until crumbly. Mix in tomatoes and herbs.
  • Add the cream and stir until just combined.

  • Transfer to baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes until just turning golden brown.

Until next time, happy eating!

      It was either chives or rosemary since the other herbs aren’t up in my garden yet. I really do need to use chives more.
