This is a very light and flaky scone that pairs nicely with soups and salads. We loved the addition of fennel seeds to this savory scone, made using only whole wheat flour as that is all I had on hand. These scones can be made last minute as they are so quick and easy to make. Thanks for the post.

Loved these! Very light and fluffy with a hint of sweetness from the cream which was a great contrast to the fennel seeds. Only mistake I made was I decided to use a muffin tray to keep them round but the tray was a fraction too large in diameter. It didn't affect the taste of course but just means in my photo they are a little rounter and flatter than they should be, they still fluffed up well so texture was great. Much enjoyed along with some apricot jam and butter.
