These praline drop scones are my go to treat when I want something impressive but don't have all day in the kitchen. They come together in just forty five minutes from start to finish, making them perfect for a quick weekend breakfast or afternoon tea. The praline paste adds such a luxurious nutty flavor that guests always think you've spent hours baking, when really it's beautifully simple. Plus, the nuts in praline provide healthy fats and protein, so you can feel good about indulging in these little golden treasures.
