I'm interested in some off the wall additions. I just saw a recipe for Bacon and Date scones that sound wonderful.
Are there more ideas out there?

When I was apprenticing at the catering company I often got scone duty. We didn't have any raisins or cranberries but we did have some fruit that needed to be used so I made a mango strawberry kiwi scone with chopped walnuts. Everyone loved them so much they went on the menu!
Ham and old cheddar are a classic. I also tried cooking small chunks of apple with butter and brown sugar just until sligthly soft and caramelized. I added some cinnamon to the scone batter. I wonder what chunks of barely ripe banana would be like?
I actually have to make some scones this week for Dad, but must stick to good old raisin. I love experimenting with them.
Hope that gives you a few inspirations!
When it was cold the Scot's did not perform coronations.
No LPB that is what the sporran is for, it counteracts frontal cold when wearing a kilt commando style, I'm sure you understand the ramifications of sitting on a freezing stone without a spider to distact you or as Burns put it.So did they sit around and eat scones to warm up?![]()

Currently, my favorites to make are bacon, cheddar and chive scones. And they freeze well also.
Bolas and Selkie,
I took a class of 17th and 18th lyric poetry in university that, of course, covered a lot of Burn's work. Loved it!
Princess - I just remembered another one from catering - cranberry and chocolate chip. Craisins and chocolate chips with a teaspoon of lemon zest in the batter.
I've got lots of Burns, but I'm a Service (Robert W.) type of girl.
Another written down.
Spinach and parmesan...for a savory?
add some pancetta coked crisp to that and you got meI love Service as well. I do pretty well in all the poetry and literature categories on Jeopardy. But I guess as an English major I should.
Spinach and parmesan....hmm, sounds interesting. would you use fresh spinach leaves? I think I would...in fact I have some so may just try this!
Thanks, Princess! See, you got the idea now!![]()
