These berry scones are perfect for the upcoming 4th of July holiday weekend. Serve them as a breakfast or brunch dish, or as a dessert with vanilla ice cream. I like to drizzle honey on top and eat them with coffee or tea. These berry scones can be made with fresh berries or frozen. You can use blueberries, raspberries, blackberries or strawberries. For Fourth of July, I use a mix of blueberries and raspberries in these scones to give them red, which and blue colors. They are a festive treat everyone will love!
I like to make these scones in my Thermomix®, because the kneading function gently mixes in the berries without smashing them and turning the whole scone colored.
