Maple Bacon Brown Sugar Scones

Well, this is one scone recipe that Hubby talked up to everyone at work before I sent them in. So much so that I sincerely hoped it lived up to expectations when they arrived–I was actually a bit nervous. I fully intended to jump this recipe to the top of the blogging queue, but the…

Red Velvet Scones w/Cream Cheese Icing

Well, about a month ago, this was going to be a Valentine’s Day scone post. But the first batch turned out so awful that I couldn’t share it (bland!). And then I kind of forgot about it (maybe that was not so unintentional?). But now, going through my blog archives of unposted, half-finished recipes and…

Blueberry Lavender Scones

Wow. Somehow last week disappeared into oblivion! Until this morning, I fully believed I had posted a scone recipe last Tuesday. Mea culpa. That said, I have decided to begin posting every two weeks (I hope). The reason for this is simple: I’m expecting my first child in under a month. I doubt that, with…

Lemon Raspberry Mascarpone Scones

So that week when I made Lemon Blueberry Ricotta Scones–remember those? (Which some people claim to have liked?) Yeah, well, I overbought on lemons, and ended up with about 8 leftovers. (I bought a bag, all right?) So with that many lemons to use before they went bad, I had to come up with another lemon…

Jalapeño-Cheddar Scones

Last week, I did something I’ve never done before. I asked my Facebook page followers to vote on this week’s recipe. Out of five recipes, Jalapeño-Cheddar Scones were the clear winner. I was excited to get to make these–I don’t think I’ve thrown jalapeños into a scone before, but they turned out pretty well. Since…

Lemon-Blueberry Ricotta Scones

This is one of those recipes that I was quite apprehensive about trying. But…I got a request for something “wild and crazy,” and ricotta fruit scones sounded a bit adventurous to me without being guaranteed to be a total flop. Lemon and blueberry obviously complement each other well. So the only real adventure in this…

Snickerdoodle Scones

I am so excited to share this scone recipe today. I crafted it a few weeks ago, and it was a huge hit with my tasters. It is definitely a sweet scone, based on the popular Snickerdoodle cookie. I’ve hardly been able to wait to share this one…it’s been a scone experiment highlight, I must…

Cheddar and Parmesan Cheese Scones

I find that savory scones are always great for breakfast or an afternoon snack. It’s a nice change from the sweet scones which can often be overpowering in their sweetness early in the morning. These scones are simple to throw together, and quick to bake, although the original recipe recommends cooling them completely for 1-2…
