Easy Eggless Lemon Cranberry Scones recipe. A great dessert or nut free snack idea to satisfy your sweet tooth.

For all those who have been reading my blog, you may have noticed my, I don't want to say unhealthy, obsession with Starbucks.

Well I went there the other day (wow. Surprise, surprise) and I got a lemon cranberry scone. I've got to say, I think I may have found one of my favorite combinations of ingredients.

So with this new taste in my mouth, I decided to try and recreate it. And I don't think I'll be returning to Starbucks.

Haha, what a lie, I mean I won't be returning to Starbucks for these scones. What when I can make them myself. Although, really, I can make coffee myself too, but it's just the CONVENIENCE.

Hm. Well the point is, these scones disappeared very quickly, and I will definitely be making these again!

Also, I just bought a microplane, and wanted to test it out. Verdict: Anyone who doesn't already have one, please. Go out and buy one. One of my best purchases this year!

Scones are my favorite! I love the flavor combo in this particular one... you definitely don't need to get Starbucks scones when you have these... I like Starbucks coffee but don't particularly like their scones. Yay to the Microplane purchase! It is one of my favorite, most used, and most treasured kitchen gadgets!
