Asian Pear Scones **
Sometimes a passing thought becomes a delicious recipe! This is my own recipe, which is a riff off the Asian Pear Cake I make. See those hunks of fruit? Those are Asian Pears from our orchard, and these Asian Pear scones are deliciously spiced with warm Fall spices and a hint of citrus.
An Asian Pear is one of those unsung hero fruits not too many people know about. It looks like an apple, crunches like an apple, but tastes like a pear. This fruit is not a hybrid, but a varietal that has been grown for close to 3,000 years in Asia, and oddly grows quite well here in Northern New England.
Harvested from our property in the early-mid Fall, these delicious pears keep their delightful crunch when baked. With the combination of warm spices, you’ll be cozying up with a cup of coffee or tea and watching the foliage turn. I couldn’t resist putting one against the backdrop of the stunning foliage that was coming to a peak!
I challenge you to eat just one. No one I’ve known has pulled this off. They’re so good, you go back in for second breakfast and elevensies (if you’re a Hobbit).
These scones are available from Fall-early winter, as long as the pears hold their crunch.
Makes 16 smaller scones.
Allergens: wheat, milk, eggs
Available for nationwide shipping, pickup, or delivery.
