It may not be summer time just yet, but I think we could all use some sunshine and warmth right now in our lives. So, I thought I would go ahead and make these Skinny Summer Strawberry Scones and update the photography in the process.
I've made scones a handful of times in the past few years, and while it took a few attempts at first I’ve gotten the process of making these scones down well enough. The recipe is surprisingly similar to that for Irish Soda Bread…

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, weekends are for baking. …And for brunch!
Way way back when, I made some delicious Summer Strawberry Scones. And while I had half a mind to go back and update that original, I decided to take a slightly different route this time around. Instead I made these Skinny Grapefruit Scones.

Sugar cookies are always my first choice!...

For the past three weeks now, I've been loaded up with fresh local blueberries. So I've been wanting to do something extra special with them. Of course, there's always muffins but I thought I would take it a step further and go for scones today!
These aren't your average scones though. They are lightened up in the best of ways using white wheat flour, coconut oil, and no sugar. That's right. NO SUGAR. And they still taste absolutely amazing. I left these scones in 'mini' form since I prefer snacking around for my meals to keep things fun and interesting to my palate. But, they're also the perfect 'tea party' size...
