If my dream of owning a little farm
with a bed and breakfast on it
with a bed and breakfast on it
ever comes true...
these scones WILL be on the breakfast menu. :-)

Those look very yummy! :-)
Your scones look wonderful and they must be good! I hope your B&B dreams come true! I started following you on Facebook, Pinterest, and Twitter - these looked so good I pinned them to my Breakfast board!
I noticed this recipe didn't require any eggs like most of other recipes
Thank you so much for this recipe. I have looking for a good scone recipe to try them. I have never made scones, imagine, and I'm a grandmother. Geesh....I can't wait to indulge. Thanks, Deb
These scones look lovely. I made blueberry scones recently too, though mine had a healthy dose of rolled oats in them too. I was trying to recreate a delicious scone I had sampled in Maine earlier this summer and was pretty happy with the results. As a scone lover, I've bookmarked this one to try too! Found you on the Gooseberry Patch Blog Hop!
Thank you Lisa, Laurie, and Deb! :-)
Ashley, scones are like a biscuit which usually don't contain eggs.
Martha, I bet oatmeal and blueberry would be delicious together. I hope you enjoy my recipe!
Thanks for posting this recipe! I have been making these with dates instead of blueberries and they have been a huge hit!
