These crispy, crumbly, buttery scones were a favorite at the bakery I ran. The secret to the perfect texture is cutting the butter similar to how you would for a shortbread or pie dough.

These enormous dark and crusty whole wheat loaves can be made any time you like. They don’t have to be big, but they are at their best when they are a larger loaf.
