Blackberry, Lavender, and White Chocolate Scones

A visiting friend (it feels so nice to say that) left me some blackberries, my neighbor brought me some lavender from her garden, and after making matcha chocolate covered strawberries I had a bunch of white chocolate left in my pantry. Enter these scones.

Notes:

  • I did not put the glaze on top, but in hindsight I think I would have liked it for a little more sweetness.
  • The dough was a bit wet for a scone and a little hard to shape, but it ended up working out.
  • I made my own buttermilk (1 tbsp lemon juice or white vinegar + enough milk to make 1 cup, mix and let stand for 10 min to thicken slightly).

Verdict: They were surprisingly good! If I make them again would put more lavender in next time, and maybe add some lemon zest, and add the glaze that was in the original recipe.
