Comforting and delicious Vanilla Lavender Scones! Tea Time anyone??
I have totally fallen in love with lavender lately. I have a lavender mist for our sheets to make going to bed sweeter, I’m OBSESSED with our Lavender Lemonade, and now these pretty little Vanilla Lavender Scones. Perfect for tea time, breakfast, a mid-day snack, or anytime in between!
These are so cozy and comforting. Reminds me of high school history class when we all made scones…LONG before the days when I had ever cooked for fun.
These Vanilla Lavender Scones are a bit better, I must say!
I love the subtle lavender flavor. I added the purple food coloring for fun, but that is totally optional. It will taste the same without it. These scones make for a fun Easter Brunch idea!
Let’s all be classy tea time friends!! Enjoy :)
I used Taylor & Colledge lavender extract paste, turned out amazing!
Thanks, Megan!
This dough does not come together. I was very excited to make these but very disappointing. And yes I followed the recipe exactly.
I had to add a little extra liquid to mine also. Just add a little at a time until everything stays together.
Do the lavender buds have to be in bloom ? Mine are just past bloom
these look awesome & I have the exact same scone pan. absolutely love lavender too. have plenty of culinary lavender to make these. my project for tonight. I think I will put the lavender in my spice mill just like I do for my cake.
thank you
Hope you love it! Thanks for saying hi :)
Your photos are beautiful! I’m working on starting a blog myself:) I own a bakery/cafe and one of our specialties is scones. I make lemon lavender scones- very similar to yours. I should try it with vanilla next week. Have you tried using cold, cubed butter and buttermilk in place of the cream? The results are very large, light, ever so fluffy scones. We use 2/3 cup buttermilk for that amount of flour and 4 TBSP cold butter that we cut in to the dough. I’m excited to try your vanilla lavender variety :)
Thank you!! I LOVE your suggestions. This was my first time trying scones, and your recipe sounds awesome! I”ll make them that way next time for sure!
These are soooo pretty Becky! I love the photos too! And of course I would happily snack on one (or two..) of these! haha
Thank you Ashley!! Means a lot coming from you!!
These look beautiful! I have never cooked with lavender before. Also that pan is pretty cool!
Thanks Malinda!
