Cinnamon Scones-WHAT HAPPENED?
I have been a loyal Sprouts Scone supporter for the last 4 years. They literally carried me through my pregnancy. I went up grab some without even looking.. When I got home. I noticed two things… The price jumped $2 from 3.99 to 5.99, and they’re no longer the crumble scones with the icing on the top.. they’re now actually shaped like scones, but they’re entirely too flakey, similar to that of a biscuit.
I’m from the north and as someone who grew up on scones, while the old ones were a bit sweet and more cookie like, these new ones are giving me the vibe of a biscuit.
I spoke to the baker and she said they discontinued the old scones and sprouts started buying from an entirely new supplier.
Can anyone help me figure out a recipe to closely resemble the old, crumbly scones??? the new are just not doing it for me. I’ve literally ate them weekly for the last few years.. The month or two where they didn’t have any, I figured it was a shortage or the oven broke at the locations near me.
HELP! PLEASE!
