These blew me away. Seriously. I only knew scones as sad dry pucks of dough that needed good coffee or tea to . After the kids and I made the Irish soda bread and loved it, I should have had a clue but I was still so surprised. These came out so light and flaky and we loved the lemon peel. Only one revision I would make next time would be to add less sugar in the dough. While I didn't think they were overly sweet my husband thought they were just slightly so. Blueberries would be extraordinary in these!
I'm with you, in thinking scones were hard and dry. I was pleasantly surprised with these. Then again, it is a Marion Cunningham recipe - love her.
