scone
Crumbly breakfast morsel
A scone is a small, lightly sweetened baked good, typically round and served with tea.
British scones resemble American biscuits—tender, crumbly, often split and spread with clotted cream and jam.
American scones tend to be denser, wedge-shaped, and sometimes studded with fruit or glazed.
The pronunciation varies: rhymes with "gone" in Britain, with "bone" in America.
