Stare deeply into your computer screen into the swirly depths of these scones. Vibrant red whirls of raspberry goodness. Are you hypnotized yet? 😯
You take one bite of these and you’re sold. Tender golden scone bites that are punctuated with sweet and tart bits of sugar-coated raspberries. I repeat, SUGAR-COATED RASPBERRIES. OH! And that drippy vanilla glaze. Mhm. It delivers the perfect extra touch of sweetness and just makes them look oh so cute, doncha think? So pretty in pink!
Kyle and I are heading back up to Santa Barbara tomorrow night, so I thought it would be good to get in one last baking session at my parent’s house before getting back to a crowded kitchen. I don’t think I’m ready to jump back into class and studying… what a rude awakening from the last few vacation weeks I’ve had of binge watching Netflix, spending all day in pjs, camping, and scone-making. While the house I’m living in up at SB is gorgeous and has a big kitchen, the temperature knobs on the oven have had their measurements rubbed off from years of use, so we aren’t to sure how hot things are really getting in there. I’ve had more than my share fair of burnt cookies and rock-hard brownies and was not about to risk the lives of my little rosy love bites.
NOT THESE SCONES OVEN. You can’t win this one.
These raspberry scones are deceiving, and not in a bad way. Full of sweet flavor and flaky dough, they seem like they should be packed with tons of calories, but they’re actually much lighter than most baked goods and come in at less than 250 calories each! I love when you can lighten up normally indulgent comfort food so that you feel better about treating yourself everyday! Whole wheat flour and light on the sugar, but still full of flavor! Yummers.
Wow those look perfect! Love how healthy they are, I’m sure they taste just as good as a cinnabon
Yuuum! These look so good! I bet these things are better than the raspberry flips at the gas station. Waaaaaaaay better! 😀 yum yum
Mmmm these look so yummy! My sister would love to try these, so I might just have to bake them this weekend!
These look amazing, especially with the glaze… I’m a sucker for vanilla glaze.
I love anything with raspberries. These are perfection! So pretty and of course your pictures are amazing too!
Oh my gosh, these look so good! I love scones, but I try to eat them sparingly since they’re not usually very good for you. I want these with some coffee ASAP!
I was hypnotized after the first photo! Amazing. Good luck getting back into the swing of school… BOOOOOO.
Oh my word girly!! These look sooooo delicious!! Seriously! I absolutely love how PINK they are! So fun!! …and since you eat with your eyes first, these are delicious already!! #YUM!!
I’m glad to hear that the oven didn’t win the battle on this one, because these scones look ah.maze.ing. Then again, everything that comes out of your kitchen does, so I’m not surprised 😛 And good luck transitioning back into the swing of things with school, lady! I know it can be a bit of a pain, but there’s no doubt in my mind that you got this!
Just come be my personal chef already. I promise, Kuwait is a great country to live in. You can even bring the man.
These are probably the best looking scones I have seen in ages.. and the best thing about them is how healthy they are. Great recipe!
These are beautiful! I feel like these should be on everyone’s Valentine’s Day to do list. I love the method of rolling them up, sort of like cinnamon rolls!
Dear Scones,
Please get into my stomach immediately! Working at Starbucks for years gave me a love for scones. These would hit the spot!!
These are gorgeous! I feel like they would be perfect for a spring or summer bridal shower!
