Blueberry Raspberry Scones

These raspberry scones not only make a wonderful breakfast or brunch treat! I added some blueberries and they become patriotic too! A fun snack or dessert and so good with cream or ice cream!
I am happy to report that berries are abundant right now in the grocery store. The other day I needed something to go with our coffee in the morning that was not overly sweet, so I made scones.
As a productivity manager, I am all about less time cooking, more time enjoying! This easy-peasy recipe is perfect when you want something delicious without the hassle.
These are a delicious treat with coffee or tea. Pair these with some Chicken Salad Tea Sandwiches or egg salad tea sandwiches for an afternoon tea snack.
Why this Recipe?
This scones recipe was adapted from the Joy of Cooking cookbook. I used to make scones a lot when my daughter was younger and we would have tea parties with friends. It has been a long time since we have done that and I think we are going to have to schedule a spring tea soon.
My girlfriends and I like to schedule a quarterly tea time to enjoy catching up with each other. Have you been to tea lately? These scones are great for breakfasts and brunches too. They would be fun to make for Mother’s Day too.

Mmm! Love the combination. They look wonderful!
These sound fantastic!! I’ve never thought to mix two berries together in a scone, love it!! Raspberries are my favorite and I love blueberries, too – great combination.
Thanks Kristy! They came out really good & the fruit is still nice and juicy.
Yours look very good. I usually think the scones you get at restaurant/stores are too dry but yours doesn’t look that way at all. The best food in the world is summer berries, I sometimes think.
I know what you mean Tamara. I love baking with summer berries! Then I figure I can count it as a fruit! 🙂
OH MY! These look delicious! Thanks for sharing the recipe, I’m going to have to try to make these! Yum!
Thanks Stephanie – they are tasty!
I love, love, love scones–my favorite would be cranberry orange; but these look great too!
I love cranberry and orange too Ann 🙂
Hi Raquel….. I also Love cranberry and orange. and they are testy also.
So i tried this recipe however the dough did not get doughie. It was loose like the dough you use to make banana bread. Regardless of how much flour I added I could not get it to thicken up to a dough consistency that could be kneaded. What did I do wrong?
I did tweak the ingredients a bits. I used lactose free stick butter and evaporated milk because that was what I had on hand to use.
It may have been the evaporated milk causing the issue. Where you using all-purpose flour or a different flour?
I want to try these scones but I am not sure about the amount of berries. Is it 3/4 of a cup of each berry or 3/4 of a cup combining the two berries? Also, can I make them smaller?
Hi Cynthia, I use 3/4 cup of each berry. And yes, you can make them smaller, just watch them as they may be done a couple of minutes early since they are snaller.
