It's that time again - SRC time! Each month, we're assigned another blogger, and we get to select a recipe from their blog to make. This month, I got Cindy from Hun, What's for Dinner? Going through her archives, I wasn't sure what to pick! Bacon Cheddar Pinwheels, Chocolate Mug Cake, or Cucumber Tomato Salad with Feta? Ultimately, I didn't choose any of those three recipes, although I think I will have to make those soon too! With all the fresh blueberries I saw, I just had to make these Blueberry Scones. And I'm definitely glad I did! We quickly gobbled these delicious blueberry scones. I only made a few minor edits to Cindy's recipe, slightly decreasing the sugar to a quarter cup and the butter to four tablespoons, and increasing the sour cream to three quarters of a cup to compensate. I didn't have any sour cream around, so I actually used plain Greek yogurt instead. The final result? Scrumptious blueberry scones that demand to be made over and over! You can also modify the add-ins for just about any scone flavor you'd like. For example, I cut out the sugar and used cheddar cheese and green onions for a savory scone!

What's your favorite scone flavor?

I like to cut the scones on the baking tray instead of cutting them separately and then placing them on a baking tray. Either way works. :) Bake at 400F for 20 minutes. 7.
