I just finished eating some yummy apple cinnamon scones that B made.
It’s a recipe that he developed starting from a Bisquick base, so it is quick to put together. Less measuring than working totally from scratch, which he also does.
One of my favorite scratch recipes is his pumpkin scones, for which we often use frozen honey nut squash. Well, you do have to thaw the squash first. In the fall when the farm stands are about to close and are selling winter squash by the box, we often buy a bunch of honey nut squash to bake, mash, and portion out to freeze so that we can use it for recipes for months to come.
But today, the apple cinnamon scones hit the spot.
Starting from the Bisquick base, it’s easy to make lots of variations. Besides fresh fruits, like apples, peaches, or plums, we use dried fruits, such as cranberries, currants, or raisins. There are lots of variations for the recipe, depending on what you have on hand.
We also add a bit of sugar, white or brown, and spice, often cinnamon but possibly nutmeg or cardamon, depending on what we use for fruit.
I hope I’m not making you hungry….

Sounds good even though I TRY to stay away from bread…yet when hubby makes biscuits, I gotta have one with a smidge of molasses!

Biscuits are such a great comfort food! I don’t think I’ve heard of having them with molasses but that is most likely a regional difference. I tend to go with butter.

The husband will hopefully make some later when baking bread. Ours are from scratch and simple: either with raisins or vegan cheese 🤗
