Looks like what we call a scone. Whatever name you use, they're delicious.

It's not though, the consistency is different. These bitches are buttery and flakey, and savory. Closer to a crescent roll if you're familliar. Scones are great too and all but ime they have a different consistency entirely and aim for sweet instead of savory.

But yeah all listed pastries are delicious!

American scones are very sweet compared to what they make in Britain. They will put sweet cream or jam on them to sweeten them up.

American Southern style biscuits are unlike anything made in the UK to my knowledge. There's just no comparison.
