About Drop scones

Drop scones, also known as Scottish pancakes, are small, fluffy cakes traditionally cooked on a griddle. Originating from Scotland, these treats are made from a simple batter combining flour, eggs, milk, sugar, and baking powder, with a touch of salt for balance. Unlike regular pancakes, drop scones are smaller and thicker, offering a soft, dense texture that can be enjoyed on their own or topped with butter, honey, or jam. Nutritionally, drop scones provide a source of energy from carbohydrates, and their protein content comes from the eggs and milk. However, they can be high in added sugars and refined flour, which may impact blood sugar levels. For a healthier twist, whole-grain flour and reduced sugar can be used. Moderation is key, as these delightful scones are best enjoyed occasionally rather than as a dietary staple. Perfect for breakfast or teatime, they are a classic comfort food.
