Cheddar-Dill Scones
September 24th, 2009
Since autumn officially arrived two days ago, my body has already started to crave warm comfort food. Unfortunately, nothing but ice cubes is comforting in the kind of heat wave we’re experiencing in L.A.; so last night I cranked up the air conditioner and made cheddar-dill scones (recipe here). I had never had savory scones before, but they were moist and flaky and the sharp cheese complemented the aromatic herbs wonderfully. Perhaps I went a bit overboard pairing them with scalding soup, but the seasonal combination was simply too tempting to pass up.










Good God woman.
WTF is wrong with you?? now my apple tastes like paper in my mouth after seeing these pictures….

I am jealous of the food you eat. It looks so freaking yummy. My bf and I are on this strict paleo diet and bread is something I haven’t had in months. It’s calling my name…
Those look yummy!

It’s a curse to look at your blog before breakfast. I’m now drooling and wishing I had a scone of my own. Haha, nicely done and thanks for the recipe!

:O It looks delicious!!
I sent an email a month ago from [email protected] and have not answered me is it because you have not received?
Yummiest of Yum!! That looks delicious, scones and soup = mega comfort and deliciousness.. thanks for sharing and making me hungry!
my new favorite recipe for whenit’s fall and I want to bake but it’s still warm enough for flip flops: salted oatmeal cookies. (It’s on page 150 of the America’s Test Kitchen Family Baking Book.) I’m not sure which I like more, these or Smitten Kitchen’s margarita cookies. But these oatmeal ones are super easy and perfect on an early fall day.
I love those scones (frankly, almost anything Ina Garten makes is delicious), so I thought you might enjoy these cookies, too.
Love your site!
The minute I saw these I knew these were from Barefoot Contessa. She’s my idol, I swear. There are times when I’m watching her show and wish I was Jeffrey!
is it dinnertime yet?? this is killing me! looks delicious
blimey, never had savoury scones?
in england cheesy flakeyness is a daily necessity
though the dill is a rather sophisticated touch
let autumn soup commence
I actually made those and they are super!!!!
I can’t wait to try these! Perfect for fall!
Mmmm, yummy indeed!

there’s a bakery near my apartment that sells spinach-cheddar scones.. they’ve become one of my favorite snacks! i think i will have to try out these dill scones as well.
Oh, yum! Package those up and send them my way. haha
oh this look absolutely amazing. i’ll have to give them a whirl!
Oh these look amazing! I love everything Ina does and I can’t wait to make these! I will have to crank down the air too and pretend it’s cold in houston but oh well!
I just had some of Ina Gartens Chedder Dill Scones yesterday, how ironic! they were just as delicious as your pictures make them to be!
Those look so good!
That all looks delicious. Let the cravings begin!
I seriously think that nothing has ever looked so good in my life.
