Scones are one of my favorite breakfast foods, and this Strawberry Blueberry Scones Recipe is a perfect way to introduce scones to your regular baking repertoire. These would make a lovely addition to your Mother's Day or Easter Brunch plans. The berries are sure to make them appealing to the kids too.
Fresh or frozen strawberries & blueberries are used in this scones recipe, so you can make them year round without issue. This is especially important if you are trying to use organic produce, as fresh organic berries can be hard to find and quite expensive off-season.

Sounds delicious. I'm going to try to make these on the weekend - but with frozen raspberries (since I have a bunch of frozen raspberries) 🙂
Thanks for the recipe!

I've never had scones before, but they sound delicious. I like that it also uses whole wheat flour.
