delicious a littlw dry--add a titch more liquid if at higher elevation to get the dough to stick together. delicious--not too sweet Pros: healthful
great scones I've been making these for years! The browned butter is the trick to add flavor without tons of fat and they are just lightly sweetened-perfect with morning latte on a relaxing weekend morning especially for celebrating St Patrick's Day (like today!). I usually use all whole wheat pastry flour and dried cranberries or dried blueberries instead of raisins. Love the orange zest idea; I bet that would combine perfectly with cranberries! Best eaten the same day as they dry out after a couple days. Pros: tasty. lower fat whole grain
Very tasty added orange zest This is a great alternative to higher calorie scones. I added orange zest and replaced about 1/8 cup of the yogurt with orange juice to change it up the second time I made them and it tasted great. Pros: Not much fat Cons: Taste so good I want to eat too many
I'm puzzled by the low average rating. These are delicious not-too-sweet and easy to make. My whole family is delighted every time I make them.
Bland While the texture is very good I found them a little bland. I would recommend adding a tsp of cinnamon to the batter Pros: Soft moist texture Cons: Needs more flavor
Great taste --add a titch more liquid if you are at higher altitude--just enough to hold the dough together. love the not-too-sweetness. husband says it has a really nice chewiness. Pros: pretty healthful I would say Cons: A little dry
Guilt free daily breakfast treat I make these scones weekly! Sometimes I add some cranberries and walnuts to the white raisins plus some orange zest. I've made with lemon zest and dried cherries; dried apricots and flaked (unsweetened) coconut; lots of fresh cinnamon chopped apples and pecans; and tomorrow will be fresh grated ginger chopped crystallized ginger and almonds. The possibilities are endless and they always taste great! Pros: easy adaptable
I thought these were a bit dry and lacking flavor but I've not had that many scones in my lifetime so... Pros: Lower Calorie Cons: Dry
Lowfat scones that don't taste low fat I've used this delicious scone recipe that looks like any other scone -- and tastes better.-- since I first saw it in the magazine years ago. And I even use all whole wheat for the flour. My guests don't complain. Pros: A favorite family and guest recipe for years. Cons: Are there any?
