Are you a scone person yes or no? About five years ago I became a scone person. See I always thought scones were dry and didn’t really have flavor. Now that I make them, I love scones. Strawberry is one of my favorite flavors for scones.  My scones are not your traditional scones for two reasons. First reason is they are moist. Second reason is I scoop them, instead of rolling them and cutting them. By scooping them it helps keep them moist and scooping them is so much easier. If you know me at all, you know I like easy recipes.

Happy Baking ????

Tips & Recommendations

Make sure the strawberries are bite size. If your strawberries are super moist, add a few more tablespoons of flour. You can make a glaze to drizzle on them if you wish.
