Smooth Blueberry Scones
Scones, or one of the reasons why I dream of living in London… You’ve probably already felt my passion for scones when I visited Borough Market: my article about London is right here. Needless to say, I am particularly happy to share this recipe for Smooth Blueberry Scones.
It took me a while to find a recipe that is easy to make, less sweet (which is what I usually look for for my breakfast) and still very smooth. Now, you can count on me to make this recipe again & again and vary the flavors! I can’t wait to see your scones as well.
What are these scones made of?
This version is vegan, with the banana replacing the eggs. It remains very soft and particularly accessible due to the few ingredients required. Here I was in a middle of a trip in the French Alps to make this blueberry version.
When do I make these blueberry scones?
These soft blueberry scones are the perfect sweet treat for a snack (I remind you that they are traditionally at the heart of British afternoon tea!), a dessert, but also especially for breakfast or brunch.
See you soon for (many) other scones.
In the meantime, enjoy!
