Scones
Lightly sweet and sometimes savory, Scones are perfect with a cup of tea. I had never had a scone before until I went to a tea house some years ago. They were small scones, with all different shapes and flavors. I absolutely loved them and was determined to make them until I overheard someone say how difficult they are to prepare and bake. Years later, a friend of mine gave me a basket of pumpkin scones, oh my! They were so good. I asked her for the recipe and to my surprise it was quite simple. Now I love to bake scones!
It is never a bad thing to double the fruit in a recipe. I highly dislike eating a fruit muffin or pastry and there is hardly any fruit in it! So naturally I had to double the fruit. And of course, anything with lemon has to be good! These scones combine the sweet juiciness of blueberries with the perfect tartness of lemons. They are nice and crisp on the outside with so much flaky moisture inside (if that makes sense). Each individual blueberry was sweet and popped right inside of your mouth, delicious!
