With a long, always-open list of recipe ideas that I’m excited to try, I’ll never get to tick them all off because I’m always adding more and more to the list.
These cheddar chives scones have been sitting on my to-do list for a long time. I should have tried them sooner as they are delicious, soft and extremely, but extremely, quick to make. In 10 minutes you’ll have the dough, in another 5, you’ll have cut them out, and in 15-17 minutes they’ll have browned in the oven.
They can be enjoyed either warm or cold, halved and spread with butter or as they are, for a snack or breakfast, and even for lunch or dinner with a creamy soup.
If you don’t have chives in your pantry you can use parsley, green onions or any other greens you like.
Enjoy this delicious cheddar chive scones recipe!
