Rated 5 out of 5 by from Ginger Orange Scones Oh my goodness are these delicious. It takes a little longer than some recipes but don't get discouraged. The time and effort pay off in the end result. My family wants these around all the time to eat on the run or take to work and school.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Healthier Scones These scones have a very good flavor. Because of the whole wheat flour, the texture is not quite the same as other scones.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Scones This was honestly the best scones I've ever made. This recipe was so unique, all my family loved it! Even though it did contain ginger which I thought was weird since ginger does have a strong taste to it, it turned out to be the best scones I have tasted.
