I think we've said it before but I'll say it again: we like to do things rustic here on Kitchen Grrrls. When you're hungry for some baked goods you whip up a batch of super simple scones and don't fuss about making them into fancy rounds or triangles.
These are the best scones we've made! And they are oh, so simple. A complete snap to prepare!
They have just a slight coconut flavor but if you're not a fan of coconut don't worry because you probably won't notice it. What you will notice is the soft texture, bursts of blueberry, and subtle lemon flavor.
We were fortunate to get some Cocozia 100% Organic Coconut Oil to try and these scones were the perfect place to test it out. Sometimes I find coconut oil makes baked goods too dense but these scones maintained a light texture despite the coconut oil. We were very pleased :)
