What comes first – the cream or the jam? Well, that conundrum need not be a thing of your weekend with this savoury scone recipe that’s perfect for your weekend.

Utilising Stilton and pickled walnuts (these are from Opies Foods, but you can use any kind of pickle, or even olives if you prefer) these scones are are great treat to wake up to and even make an ideal mid-morning snack.
