Butter Pecan White Chocolate Scones

Butter Pecan White Chocolate Scones are amazing, filled with chopped pecans, white chocolate chips, brushed with melted butter, and lightly sweetened with a turbinado sugar topping.

They are perfect alongside a cup of coffee for breakfast or as a small batch dessert for two!

Do you hate a really dry scone that breaks into a million crumbles or a poof of dust the instant you bite into it? You’re going to love these pecan scones! They are lightly moist, soft, tender, and slightly fluffy and they are incredibly delicious too!
