Breakfast Scones

This is a recipe I created and have made in thousands of different combinations depending on my mood, the season, what ingredients I have in the house and most of all what sounds really good that morning for breakfast.


Breakfast Scones
2 cups flour
1/3 cup sugar + a tablespoon
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
6 tbsp softened butter
1/2 cup liquid (milk, heavy whipping cream, almond milk, coconut milk, soy milk, water)
Mix dry ingredients
Cut in butter
Add liquid until just moist

Now that you have the base play with the flavors, here's some ideas

  • Frozen berries (raspberries, blueberries, strawberries, blackberries...)
  • Nuts (walnuts, pecans, almonds...)
  • Pumpkin (when I add pumpkin I like to add pumpkin pie spice as well)
  • Chips (white chocolate, semi sweet, milk, dark, butterscotch)
  • Cocoa powder
The combinations are endless!!!! 

Bake @ 425 for 15 minutes

***Depending on what ingredients I add, I add additional sugar or cut back on the sugar (e.g. if I add frozen raspberries which have a bit of tartness I'll add a little extra sugar, if I add chocolate chips I'll cut back on how much sugar I add as they add their own sugar...)
