I love these scones! I didn't have raisins, so I threw in some frozen blueberries instead. (I used them while still frozen, as another site advised, and that kept them from bleeeding purple into the dough.) I would definitely make these again and try other variations.Love the whole wheat flour, too! - 2/9/10

Delightful scone recipe, especially using WW flour. I didn't have raisins, so I added craisins, orange juice and grated orange peel (cut down a little on the milk). Also made a batch with lemon juice, grated lemon peel and poppy seeds. Both were great! Will try poppy seeds with almond flavor too - 2/10/10
