Godspeed Barb!

When life gives you lavender, make lemonade!

Culinary lavender is available by the ounce or the tablespoon because you don’t need but a bit to whip up some lemonade or scone or cake, cookie or icing!

I did an experiment today and it worked! I needed a quick little bite of something sweet for my mom this morning and I had one carrot cake scone mix left on the shelf and no cream for the recipe on the box. However, I had half and half and a few mini boxes of raisins. I thought it might just work as a bite instead of a scone and it worked!

This is a great way to use these scone mixes. The prep is one bowl and one cup of half and half and there is no rolling out on a floured board which translates to less clean up! I am all about how few dishes I will have in the sink after cooking or baking.

I did one mix to one cup of half and half and dropped them on a parchment covered sheet with a small cookie scoop. I think it’s about a round tablespoon. I baked as directed for the scones at 400 for about 8 minutes.

I did a glaze with vanilla and cinnamon extract. The mix made almost two dozen bites. (I think a few went missing before they were all baked).

I just ordered bread mixes for the upcoming baking season thinking less clean up (no rolling out or cleaning of muffin tins) but now that these turned out so well, I have to rethink this scone thing!
