Mixed Berry & Coconut Scones

Scones are a delicious addition to any breakfast or great as an afternoon snack with a cup of tea. My daughter is always playing with dough so this morning I started out the day by asking her to help make some homemade “Mixed Berry and Coconut Scones”. I am always trying to make things healthier and this is my latest version of healthy scones. I used stone ground organic flour and added ground flaxseed and some mixed dried berries and coconut. They were scrumptious and so scrumptious in fact I had to share the recipe with you.
Bon Appétit, Cecelia
