Sausage Scones
Sausage Scones are a traditional Hungarian savory pastry, made special by the piquant flavor of smoked sausage in a soft, flaky dough. The fat content of the sausage makes the scones richer and even more tender, making them a perfect choice as an appetizer or alongside a hearty soup. The crispy exterior, soft interior, and intense smoky aroma are guaranteed to be a hit on any table.
