Lemon Raspberry Scones
We have been swimming in berries over here since we went berry picking a few weeks ago. I’ve frozen lots, made smoothies with some, mojitos with others and jam is up next. But these Lemon Raspberry Scones made for the perfect breakfast last week with my morning coffee. I can’t wait to get more raspberries and make them again!
