There’s a lot going on in these scones—juicy chunks of pear, pockets of creamy goat cheese, and the floral heat of cracked black pepper—but the flavors harmonize the way they do on a good cheese plate, and the yogurt gives them a tender, moist texture a bit like that of a muffin. If you like smaller scones, divide the dough into 8 pieces and bake about 30 minutes.
