• Feel free to add additional herbs or spices to customize the flavor of the scones.

• Store the cooled scones in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
• To reheat, place the scones in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for a few minutes until warmed through.
• Serve the scones as a delicious breakfast or snack option. They can also be served as a side dish with soups and salads.
