    Tips & Tricks (5)

    • Moisture Magic 💦
      Pat the pineapple tidbits dry with paper towels to prevent excess moisture from making your scones soggy and compromising their texture.
    • Cheese Distribution Technique 🧀
      Grate the mozzarella and ham very finely, then fold gently into the dough to ensure even distribution and prevent dense pockets.
    • Cold Butter Trick 🧈
      Use frozen, grated butter and keep all ingredients extremely cold to create the most flaky, tender scone texture possible.
    • Quick Fold Method 🥄
      Mix the dough minimally and use a folding technique to create layers, which will result in more delicate, airy scones with beautiful stratification.
    • Flavor Balancing 🌈
      Balance the sweet pineapple and salty ham by adding a pinch of fresh chopped basil, which will elevate the overall flavor profile of the scones.
