Isn’t it interesting how some foods bring good memories? Scones are one of those “good memories” foods for me. My mom used to make scones quite a bit when I was growing up and I loved them!

We made many different kinds, but my favorite was the holiday sour cream scones with mini chocolate chips or cinnamon chips and topped with crunchy raw sugar. So good!

I had never really worked in earnest on creating a good scone recipe, but kinda I fell into this one! I was trying to make some soft sugar cookies from the Desserts with Benefits blog but I changed the recipe quite a bit and the texture was just not cookie-ish. I still loved them and decided they would make excellent scones or sweet biscuits instead. Voila!

These Gluten-Free Cranberry Oat scones are not too sweet, so if you want more sweet, you can add extra honey or Stevia. Or you can top these with a drizzle of honey – so yummy!
