Scones are a baked treat originating from the United Kingdom, traditionally associated with afternoon tea. They are made with simple ingredients such as flour, butter, sugar, baking powder, and milk or cream. Scones can be sweet or savory, often incorporating additions like dried fruits, cheese, or spices, and are typically served with jam and clotted cream. While scones provide energy through carbohydrates and fats, they are also high in calories, saturated fats, and added sugars depending on preparation and toppings. Whole-grain flour or reduced sugar versions can offer a more nutrient-dense option, contributing fiber and vitamins. Moderation is key when enjoying this indulgent pastry, as its traditional preparation leans more toward a treat rather than an everyday food. Perfect for special occasions, scones offer a delicious way to enjoy English culinary tradition.
