The first time that I made scones, I was terrified that they would not turn out. I am definitely not a baker and thought that making scones would be a lot more difficult than it really was. I was so wrong! Making scones is easy. My first batch of scones was Cranberry Scones with Coconut Vanilla Drizzle. I love lemon and blueberry together so that is how I decided on this flavor. Next up has to be banana bread scones!

It is pretty simple to make scones healthier than normal as well. I use 100% whole-wheat flour, less sugar and the topping is pretty nutritious instead of being just sugar and fat filled. Adalyn, Troy and I enjoyed these lemon glazed blueberry scones and I look forward to trying out all of the different flavors of scones in the future.
