Eggless Savory Scones

These Eggless Savory Scones are one of the best appetizers you can prepare for a friend gathering. Buttery, with a crispy crust and a soft crumb, filled with matured cheddar cheese, onion and ham for an amazing flavor combination, these scones are simply hard to resist. The recipe is easy and quick to prepare and can be ready to serve in just a few minutes. These scones are best served warm to enjoy their great texture and flavor.

You can always make variations of the filling, like adding crispy bacon instead of ham, olives, dried tomatoes, chives or different types of herbs and the list can go on. You can also serve  them alongside fresh salad or soups for creating memorable dishes each time. I am sure you will love these eggless savory scones as much as we did. Enjoy!
