Sunday Morning Scones {aka Maple Bacon Scones with Coffee Glaze} a great balance between sweet and salty, and absolutely perfect for any morning that you have 15 minutes to pop them in the oven! Since January, I have been holding out on you guys something fierce! My secrecy involves carbs, in the form of these insanely tasty scones, and if you’ve had brunch, made scones or biscuits, or even just wanted something a little out of the ordinary for breakfast since then, I give you full permission to be mad at me. But don’t be too mad…after all, I come bearing scones....
Cranberry Almond Scones {Crazy for Cranberry}
When Mike and I lived in Kuwait last year, I picked up the habit of taking tea in the afternoon....

Savory Scones with Scallion and Cheese
Savory Scones with Scallion and Cheese are perfect for breakfast, snack time, or paired with something hearty like soup or stew for dinner. I’ve become somewhat of a scone connoisseur in the past couple years from making them so much. There’s just something about scones that appeals to me!...
Cranberry Scones {Paleo}
When I was developing this recipe, I almost didn’t expect to like these scones....
Cheddar Scones Recipe with Fresh Dill
Flaky outside and soft inside, this Cheddar Scones Recipe with Fresh Dill is easy to make and pairs perfectly with any meal. I have an aunt who absolutely goes nuts if you use her toothpaste and don’t roll the tube up from the bottom. And my mom is like the princess in the children’s story The Princess and the Pea when it comes to a grain of salt or sugar on her kitchen floor. She sweeps her kitchen religiously three times a day and loses it if she steps on a single grain. I have no idea how she feels them, lol....
Cherry-Vanilla Sour Cream Scones with Vanilla Cream Spread
I have always loved tea parties. I remember being a little girl and playing make-believe tea time with my best dolls arranged around a little table. I’d wear a hat, gloves, dress, and high-heeled shoes spirited away from my mom’s closet…and of course I always gracefully (haha!) tripped all over the place because of the shoes and too long dress. I only served water and crackers, but with a very proper (at least to my five year old ears) British accent, it always felt nothing short of elegant....
Maple-Walnut Buckwheat Scones with Honeyed Sage Butter
Can I let you in on a little secret? I’m not really sure how I feel about buckwheat. (Probably not the best way to sell you on these scones, but I have to keep it real, right?) This was the first time I baked with it, and actually, the first time I’ve knowingly had it (other than in soba noodles, which I do enjoy). Buckwheat is so healthy, I wanted to like it, really I did. But it’s just so…I don’t know…grassy, maybe? Truth be told, cardboard-y is probably a better word....
Olive Oil Scones with Cinnamon Figgie Butter
This month’s 5 Star Makeover theme is “Gourmet Picnic Food” in honor of upcoming Memorial Day. Since this theme is so wide open, I had a lot of fun with it and chose a more non-traditional picnic theme: teatime! For my picnic, pack a thermos full of tea (spiced black tea is fantastic with these scones!), some finger sandwiches, and these Olive Oil Scones with Cinnamon Figgie Butter…...
Garlic Bread Drop Biscuits
If you read my last post and thought that some kind of garlic bread would be perfect with my Spaghetti Ring & Meatball Soup, then you read my mind. For a nice change, I decided to make drop biscuits that taste like garlic bread. They’re easy to make and can be done from start to finish in the time it takes the soup to simmer on the stovetop. Garlic Bread Drop Biscuits (Yield: About 12-14 medium-sized biscuits) 1 c all-purpose flour 1 c whole wheat flour 2 1/2 tsp baking powder 3/4 tsp salt 1/3 c trans-fat free vegetable shortening 1 1/4 c low-fat or fat-free milk 4 […]...
