Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Whisk together flour, sugar, lavender buds, baking powder, salt, and baking soda
- Using a pastry blender, combine butter with dry ingredients until it resembles coarse cornmeal
- Add vanilla to your buttermilk (or buttermilk substitute), reserving 2 tablespoon for brushing on scones.
- Add milk to dry ingredients and combine.
- Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead quickly until dough takes shape.
- Pat dough into a rectangle shape.
- Cut the rectangle lengthwise and then each rectangle in half. Cut each piece diagonally in half so that you end up with eight triangles.
- Transfer to prepared baking sheet. Brush the top of each scone with the liquid you are using, and sprinkle with sugar and lavender buds.
- Bake for 15 minutes until golden.
- Cool on a rack.
Notes
- If you don't have buttermilk, use regular milk to which is added 2 tablespoon lemon juice or vinegar. Stir and allow to sit 5 minutes before using. This substitute also works with non dairy milks.
