There are a mirage of savory scones, I have one that it easy and tastes great.

This recipe is from my dinner and jam blog and is called Rosemary Corn Scones:

This is a nice twist for a savory scones - so easy to make, grab those kids and have them do this with you! Perfect for brunches and to have something special when guests come over to dinner.

*

* 2 cups all-purpose flour *

* 1/2 cup yellow cornmeal *

* 2 teaspoons baking powder *

* 2 tablespoons sugar *

* 1/2 teaspoon salt *

* 6 tablespoons butter, cold and cut in 1/4 inch slices *

* 2 teaspoons grated lemon zest *

* 1 tablespoon fresh chopped rosemary (you can use less, but I love the taste of rosemary!) *

* 1 tablespoon chopped scallions *

* 1 egg *

* 3/4 cups half and half *

* 1 egg *

* Confectioners' sugar for glaze (optional) *

#

# Preheat oven to 400.

# In large mixing bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Mix with fork.

# Add butter and blend with fingertips or pastry blender until butter is evenly mixed in chunks.

# Blend in lemon zest and rosemary and chopped scallions.

# Beat egg in small bowl with half and half. Pour into flour mixture and stir with wooden spoon.

# Turn out onto floured board and lightly knead.

# Lightly roll our dough to form 12-inch circle. Using a biscuit cutter or plain 3-inch cookie cutters, cut out dough.

# Transfer to uncoated baking sheet and brush tops with egg.

# Re-roll any scraps and cut remaining dough.

# Bake 10 minutes, remove from oven, generously sift confectioners' sugar over tops and bake 5 minutes longer.

# If not using powdered sugar, simply skip this step and let bake for additional 5 minutes - total baking time is 15 minutes. # Remove from baking sheet and let cool on rack. Serve hot, or at room temperature. Great for freezing as well.

The classic thing to put in the scone mixture is cheese; sourcream and chive is also good. Choritzo or some other kind of spiced sausage might be quite nice, possibly with saffron. Or you could try adding some cornmeal/polenta, lemon, coriander and ancho chilis (cream cheese or creme fraiche filling). Black pudding might make an interesting addition (cubed, to the dough). The possibilities are fairly limitless; just think of a meal that you enjoy and see what elements of it you can add to a scone.

Nb. For most of these flavors, the scone dough will need plenty of salt in it, to ensure that it cannot be mistaken for a "sweet scone" and to enhance the flavors of the other ingredients. In savory scones, salt is even more important than in sweet scones.

Answer 4

A good way to prepare and make a scone would be to combine self raising flour and caster sugar in a bowl. Add milk then turn the dough until the light and fluffy scones are done. They are delicious when served warm with butter and jam.
