Saturday Morning Blackberry Scones.

Two weeks ago I skipped the farmer's market because it was rainy and windy and I was dead in the middle of a two day, total house cleaning project. (It's due for another little cleaning project about now too) 

I also made these scones. Not too sweet, a little bit tart. Perfect with coffee on an August Saturday morning. 

3 cups all-purpose flour

1/3 cup sugar

2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

3/4 cup butter

1 pinch cinnamon, nutmeg

1 cup buttermilk

1 cup fresh blackberries

**I didn't have buttermilk so I mixed 1 Cup milk with 1 Tbsp lemon juice and let sit for 5-10 minutes

• Preheat oven to 400*

• Sift dry ingredients in a large bowl

• Cut in butter

• Mix in buttermilk

• Add berries

• Knead to form dough. Form dough into 3-4 inch balls

• Place on lightly greased cookie sheet and flatten slightly

• Bake 15-20 minutes

• Cool on wire rack

*Best served warm

*Have a great weekend!
