Delicious! I made these as soon as I saw the recipe and they were a huge hit! I haven’t been disappointed with one of you recipes(: Hoping to make the irish soda bread scones soon!

My great niece decided to try her hand at scones yesterday and they were very good. She used dried blueberries reconstituted in a little orange juice with lots of orange zest and believe it or not- a little Blue Moon beer bcause she was looking for the orange flavor from it. She also used that in the glaze. They were great and got me thinking I need to make scones too! I am off to the kitchen to try the pumpkin ones in preparation for Thanksgiving. (gotta try them in advance right?)

Hi Michelle!

I had to come back and comment on this post because I made these this weekend to the LOUD applause from my in-laws and husband, and even my co-workers, on whom I bestowed the leftovers. So delicious. Thanks for the recipe!

I am such a sucker for maple and these scones are calling my name. I am one of those cablevision customers who is extremely upset and angry about not having Food Network. I am ready to switch providers just because of that.

I love scones!! And I’ve never seen maple oatmeal scones before so they are definitely being added to my list. I’m kind of surprised at how many eggs are in them though. Those quiche lorraine scones sound like they’d be really good too.

I love scones, but it takes great recipe to make them moist and delicious. This recipe sounds like a winner. Can’t wait to make it.

WOW, those look and sound amazing! Thanks for mentioning the Cooking LIght link, I’ll have to check that out as well. Scones are one of my favorite pastries…I wonder what a pb&j scone would taste like??

The texture of the opened one makes your scones look like brioche! And that’s a lovely thing to see, but you’re not helping with my scone kick!

Hi Michelle,

You can actually create your own buttermilk if you don’t have access to it. Here is how to do it:

Place 1 tablespoon of white vinegar or lemon juice in a 1-cup measuring cup. Add enough milk to the cup to bring the liquid up to the 1-cup line. Let stand for 5 minutes and then use as much as your recipe calls for (in this case, 1/2 cup).

Enjoy the scones!

Hi Amy,

Unfortunately, I don’t really think you can substitute maple flavoring here since such a large quantity is used. If it were to replace something like vanilla extract I would say yes but eliminating a 1/4 cup of liquid in a recipe would likely affect the texture of the final product.

Maybe you and your mom can run to the store once she gets there and then you can bake together? Have a fantastic day and a great time with your mom!

YUM!! I saw that episode yesterday and couldn’t wait to try these! Nice to know they taste as good as they look! Just wondering, though – would it be at all possible to use maple flavoring instead of actual syrup? My mom is coming for a visit today and I don’t have any maple syrup in the house; I’d like to make these, but I don’t want to screw it up by not using syrup. What do you think?

I don’t eat scones often enough! I rarely buy them at Starbucks, and I only bake them once in a while. But these are begging to be baked. I just can’t resist anything containing pure maple syrup!

These scones look tasty! I’ve never had any with maple flavoring, but am very willing to try it. My favorite scones recipe comes from a class I took in university, called “Luscious Lit.” Bi-weekly we met to talk about a reading assignment related to food. The group was then given a recipe, created the dish in the kitchen while reviewing the week’s assignment, and then dined together. The recipe is for white chocolate cranberry scones. Delish!

Hi Michelle:

Probably hard to believe but where I live it’s near to impossible to get buttermilk and there are tons of recipes like this one that I haven’t been able to make. Is there any way to substitute the buttermilk in this recipe without the flavor being too far off?

Hugs!

Wow, these look fantastic! I’m a fan of scones that remind me of biscuits. I have some buttermilk to use up to, so maybe I’ll make them!

Oh Julie, a woman after my own heart! Bacon! Bacon would be sensational in these! Very reminiscent of the flavors in the Brown Sugar Bacon Buttermilk Waffles! Thank you for the wonderful suggestion!

Sounds just amazing…definitely bookmarking these! Wonder how they’d be with just a bit of bacon..hmm!

I’ve never made scones before, but I think I must try these! They sound amazing.

Ooh this looks delicious! I adore ADORE Ina. I think it’s a lucky thing for you that you’ve never tried a Starbucks scone, because that’s the only kind I’ve ever had, and that’s why I’ve never made them myself. I thought they all tasted like that! So dry I thought I might choke…

I’m so excited to give these a try! I would also LOVE to try the quiche Lorraine scones you speak of. Yum!

There is no reason to be ashamed of your confession! I have never eaten a scone other than one my mom has made!
These look great! Never had any scones with maple in them! I’ll have to try this kind!
Thanks for sharing )

Thanks for blogging these – it seems like quite a few of us were intrigued by this recipe when we saw it and it’s always nice to get a review! They look wonderful! I’ve never had a scone that didn’t come from my kitchen either, so you’re definitely not alone.
