Cardamom Vanilla Cream Scones
I first made these Cardamom Vanilla Cream Scones in January during our fourth day stuck at home due to the large snow storm. I was itching to bake something and happened to have all the ingredients on hand to make these scones. We enjoyed them so much that I added them to the menu I…
Maple Gingerbread Scones
These Maple Gingerbread Scones are a nice addition to breakfast on Christmas morning with a warming mixture of spices (ginger, cinnamon, cloves) molasses, and maple syrup. After cooling slightly, they are covered in a glaze flavored with a bit more maple syrup. I cut these scones into 8 large slices, but you can also divide…
Irish Scones
Irish scones are a perfect addition to breakfast or afternoon tea. These scones are light and flaky with just a hint of sweetness. The butter used makes a remarkable difference in the quality. Use Kerrygold or another Irish butter if you can get your hands on it. European cultured butters are richer with less water…
Meyer Lemon Scones
It makes me a little sad I was only able to get my hands on 3 Meyer lemons this winter. I never saw them in the local grocery stores and I only got them once in my CSA box. Through all the recipes I have saved, I chose to use them for these Meyer Lemon…
Vanilla Bean Cream Cheese Scones
I get my vanilla beans from Amazon (so much cheaper than getting them at the grocery store) and needed to use up three that have been in my cabinet for a while before they got too old. These Vanilla Bean Cream Cheese Scones with a vanilla bean glaze were a perfect way to use them….
Vanilla Orange Scones
Vanilla Orange Scones are the perfect accompaniment to breakfast coffee or tea. The vanilla bean and orange zest filled scones are topped with a glaze that also include hints of vanilla and orange. Be sure the scones are completely cooled before adding the glaze. Otherwise, the glaze will soak into the scones and become soggy….
Strawberry Scones with Lemon Glaze
These Strawberry Scones with Lemon Glaze are a refreshing way to start the day. The scones are bursting with chopped strawberries and covered with a glaze made from lemon zest and juice. Once you get the hang of working with scone/biscuit dough, they come together quickly. If you don’t have a microwave, the glaze can…
Lavender Vanilla Bean Scones
Celebrate spring and Easter with these Lavender Vanilla Bean Scones! This is the first recipe I have made using lavender. It adds a floral quality to the scones by being mixed into the dough in addition to sprinkling over the top of the vanilla bean glaze. The vanilla bean pairs well with the lavender flavor…
Orange Scones
These Orange Scones are a perfect addition to breakfast or a teatime snack. The orange zest and juice give the scones a light and refreshing flavor. There is also an extra bit of sweetness from the orange-flavored icing drizzled over the tops. I used Cara Cara navel oranges for the first time while making these…
