Homemade scones with cherries like fluff: how to make a fragrant pastry
Homemade scones are fragrant, soft, and fluffy for tea. Just like pies, they can be made with different fillings: poppy seed, cottage cheese, cherries, strawberries, blueberries, apples, marmalade, or cinnamon. But it is better to use yeast dough as a base.
Foodblogger Irina with the nickname ira.shaf_cooking on her Instagram page shared a recipe for homemade buns with cherries, which are made from basic yeast dough and turn out very soft and puffy.
