2 Reviews of Lavender Scones

These were quite nice. I used half whole wheat flour and half all-purpose. I used Smart Balance in place of the butter, and had to sub regular milk for the buttermilk, because I didn't have any. I also halved the amount of lavender, because I was using dried flowers. I cooked them on my baking stone, and instead of using a cookie cutter, I just placed spoonfuls of it on the stone (drop method) until I ended up with 12 of them. The lavender flavor definitely comes through. These go great with a variety of hot teas. (Earl Grey and lavender make a very nice flavor combination.) These were a treat, and easy to make, so I'll definitely be making them again.

What a delicious scone recipe. This is my first experience with lavender and I loved it! I made 6 scones and used 1/2 a tsp of dried lavender and replaced the honey with Splenda. This is a recipe that I will certainly make again. They come out high, fluffy, moist and so tender. They aren't "sweet" but have a lovely rich flavor even with lots on butter.
