I was craving scones badly over the weekend. My kids went out for an early morning walk with their dad, and I just had to kill those cravings.
In addition, when I started making them, I thought to make something different than usual scones, so I added buttermilk, instead of milk, and an egg, coconut oil, and had half of the bag of dried pomegranate.
If I had to compare it, it is kind of between rock cakes which is similar to scones, and actual scones. The difference is that rock cakes you spoon it on the baking sheet and scones you cut it like a donut. These are like mini soda bread, sweet biscuits and I was in love with them.
At first, when my gang came home, they looked it kind of “WTF?” and did not touch, which made me little disappointed, but a few hours later they were all eating more than one
I can see why though?! These do not look that appealing, for instance, but I actually like homemade rustic looking things so it spoke my language in an instant. Furthermore, I would say they are so much better the next day… I had to hide one to munch with my morning coffee.

They are crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Not overly sweet and have that kick off the savory too. I think it is a great breakfast or a snack.
Also, you can also add nuts and have a little more crunch as well as nutrition. They are super easy, not too much fuss, they suppose to look rustic and homemade.
If you like sweeter, add more sugar or more eggs. I have not tried it yet with whole wheat flour or any other type of flour, and I am eager to try. Maybe I’ll experiment this upcoming week.
