Zucchini Cheddar Scones Are A SUPER Easy Savory Scone Recipe!
If you’re looking for something a little different as a side dish, this is it!! Savory scones are absolutely a thing! Don’t get me wrong, I love a sweet scone…my Chocolate Chunk Orange Scones are absolutely killer, but a savory version is unexpected, but equally delicious! Think of it like an elevated biscuit. Honestly they’re just as easy as biscuits, but somehow seem fancier. The flaky, tender center and the crisp, buttery edges are the perfect pairing to just about any dinner!

Are Scones the Same As Biscuits?
Well they are definitely similar, but they aren’t exactly the same! Biscuits should be layered and light on the inside, and a scone is tender, but a bit more dense. There isn’t a huge difference in making scones and biscuits, but there is a difference in texture. AND you could even cut your scones using a biscuit cutter if you prefer that instead of wedges.
