Blackberry Scones

Blackberries are beautiful around here right now and we are taking full advantage of them and planning all types of yummy foods... as well as just popping them straight into our mouths.

This morning we are having blackberry scones for breakfast.
Here's how we made them:


Blackberry Scones

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/3 cup sugar
• 2 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 3/4 cup butter
• 1 pinch cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1 cup fresh blackberries

Preheat oven to 400*

Sift all dry ingredients together in large bowl

Cut butter into dry ingredients and mix in buttermilk. Add berries

Knead to form dough and make into 3-4 inch balls

Place on lightly greased cookie sheet and flatten slightly

Bake 15-20 minutes

Serve warm

And this is a step that you ought to try, if you have a chance...

Make them in the morning with someone you completely adore!
