Tender, bakery-style scones with the perfect combination of peanut butter and chocolate chips — lightly sweet, flaky, and ideal for breakfast, brunch, or a sweet snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 2/3 cup heavy cream
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Cut in cold butter using a pastry cutter or fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together peanut butter, heavy cream, egg, and vanilla until smooth.
  5. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Gently fold in chocolate chips.
  6. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat into an 8-inch circle about 1 inch thick. Cut into 8 wedges.
  7. Place scones on the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Brush tops with a little extra cream if desired for a golden finish.
  8. Bake for 15-18 minutes or until scones are lightly golden and cooked through.
  9. Cool slightly and enjoy warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • Use cold butter for the flakiest texture.
  • Store scones in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or freeze for up to 1 month.
  • Optional: drizzle with melted peanut butter or chocolate for extra flavor.
