Date and Gorgonzola Scones

Date and Gorgonzola Scones recipe
Photographs by Emma Fishman

A cheese board, but make it a scone! These mostly savory scones are packed with just enough caramelly, chewy Medjool dates to balance lots of crumbled blue cheese that melts into the flaky, buttery layers. The scones are just as good with a salty cocktail as with tea or coffee, which means they’ll be perfect for a hair-of-the-dog brunch the next day.
