Look at that first picture again —> hello perfect scone crack. I mean literally, the crack through the middle. Isn’t that some sort of prerequisite for awesome scones? I wouldn’t know because I don’t make awesome scones, but Kristin does, and hers have a scone crack, and I couldn’t love it more. She loosely based the recipe on one from our hometown church cookbook and then added her own zing, zest, pinch of Kristin, like she does. They turned out just buttery enough, so they were almost soft, but still sturdy enough to kind of break pieces off and dunk in coffee. And the glaze dries gorgeously on the top and gives it the most perfectly subtle citrus sweetness. I had mine topped with the two best scone toppings in the history of life: butter and honey. And a big ol’ morning mug of coffee. And then another one, and repeat for one week. If scones aren’t your thing, yoooouuuu still have to try them. But if you want to bake other cute things like Kristin, go back in time to her Fruit Pizza. I posted the recipe on Pinch of Yum even though layering fruit in beautiful designs is not the kind of thing I am really good at. Right now Kristin is single-handedly keeping this little bloggy alive. I think I owe her some lentils. Hey. Butter and honey. Don’t forget. 5 from 4 reviews
