Spinach Feta Scones
- 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- 3 3/4 teaspoons baking powder – *make sure to use fresh baking powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt (if you don’t have kosher salt, reduce the amount of salt by half (kosher salt is less salty)
- 1 Tablespoon sugar
- 1/2 cup cold butter cut into small chunks
- 2 cups fresh spinach, roughly chopped
- 1 cup feta, crumbled
- 1 1/4 cups heavy cream, plus a few table spoons for brushing the tops of scones
- fresh cracked pepper for finishing
These are best eaten fresh the first day. If you have leftovers, place them in a rigid air-tight container and freeze. When you are ready for them, take them out to thaw (uncovered) for about 2 hours. Simply pop them into a preheated oven at 400 degrees for about 3-5 minutes. Enjoy!
TIP
*Make sure you are using fresh baking powder to insure a good rise.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Cheers!

Can you use regular milk instead of heavy cream – if youdon’t have heavy cream on hand?

Love these. The husband requests them all the time! I add a dash of onion powder and garlic powder to make them a little more savory. I also use half and half since I usually have that on hand. I’m about to make another batch but forgot feta so we are going to give it a whirl with shredded cheddar. I usually cut them up smaller so they are more like snack size or we just have a couple with a salad or something. Great recipe!!!

These were delicious. Didn’t have heavy cream so used half and half. They rose beautifully and the texture was nice and fluffy.

Hi Mary,
Do you think 2% milk would be okay instead of the heavy cream?
These look wonderful!
Thank yo for sharing!
Cheers,

These look incredible – do you think it would be possible to use frozen spinach in place of fresh?

Looks great!!! I have a tip from another scone recipe. The best way to keep the dough cold is to use shredded frozen butter. It really works!

I made these this morning to go along with bacon and duck eggs from our local father's market that I scrambled up. These were so light, fluffy and flaky it was really hard to eat just one! Hubby's was gone before I could ask how he liked it so thats a yes from him. Lol. I will definitely make these again and probably play around a little with the mix-ins for a little variety. Yum!

Will use blue cheese, husband doesn't like feta. Looks easy. Thanks for sharing.
