(Detroit.CityRegions.Com, March 10, 2015 ) Taylor, MI -- Scones got their start as a Scottish quick bread made with oats and baked on a griddle. Today's version is more often made with flour and baked in the oven. Scones come in various shapes including triangles, rounds, squares and diamonds. They can be savory or sweet and are usually eaten for breakfast, but are also served with tea and in coffeehouses.
As for the origin of the word "Skone", some say it comes from the Dutch word ‘schoonbrot', which means beautiful bread, while others argue it comes from Stone of Destiny, where the Kings of Scotland were crowned. According to Webster's Dictionary, scones originated in Scotland in the early 1500s.
Scones became an essential part of the fashionable ritual of taking tea in England when the Duchess of Bedford, late one afternoon, ordered tea and sweet breads, which included scones. She was so delighted that she ordered it every afternoon and it turned into the English tradition of "Afternoon Tea Time". Scones are served daily in Britain with the traditional topping of clotted cream.
