A pleasure to eat and healthy to boot, how can you go wrong? This recipe makes very nice scones that have very good flavor but aren't loaded with fat. I used Splenda for the sugar, soured fat free milk with lemon juice and mixed all purpose flour 50/50 with whole grain. Made for Pic A Chef, Spring 2013.
