About Scones and gravy

Scones and gravy is a hearty dish that combines flaky, buttery scones with rich, savory gravy, often made from meat drippings, flour, and milk or cream. This comforting combination is a staple in Southern cuisine in the United States, where it’s typically served as a breakfast or brunch item. The scones provide a satisfying base, while the gravy adds depth and flavor. From a nutritional perspective, the dish is high in carbohydrates and fats, making it an energy-dense option. However, traditional recipes may contain significant amounts of saturated fat and sodium, depending on the gravy preparation. For a healthier twist, lighter versions can be made using whole wheat flour for the scones and low-fat milk or plant-based alternatives for the gravy. While indulgent in nature, scones and gravy can be balanced within a varied diet when enjoyed in moderation.
