Scones

Over the past few weeks I have been baking like a fiend! Baking has always been a huge passion of mine, but I never really made time for it. Well, that has all changed now and I am baking constantly, my boyfriend must think I'm crazy. I got a beautiful KitchenAid Pro Stand Mixer for christmas and it is being well loved.

This past weekend I wanted to try my hand at making simple vanilla scones. I found this great recipe off of Pinterest which just so happened to be from one of my favorite blogs (offbeat + inspired), so I knew it had to be good!

It was seriously the most simple and perfect recipe I have ever tried. You know what I'm talking about, the recipes that you do once and it turns out so great it boosts your self-confidence to an 11?! Yeah, well, that is what happened with these scones. The whole process took about 30 minutes from start to finish and they were PERFECT. I barely waited for them to cool off before I started eating them. I can't even begin to explain how wonderful they are. You'll just have to take my word on it and try them out for yourself some saturday morning. You can find the recipe here.

I topped mine with some homemade strawberry lavender jam (i'll post about that jam come spring time).

Enjoy!
