morning glory scones on cooling rack

Well, you guys, not going to lie — it has been a WEEK. It started with a gigantimous to-do list on Monday after a few rough nights of sleep, followed by server issues on my blog (yay for tech problems I don’t understand! and for sarcasm!) and a few other hiccups in my days. But then it ended with these Morning Glory scones, so I’d say all is well and forgiven, Horrible Week.

Now let’s eat scones and forget about each other.

In case you don’t know what “Morning Glory” implies, it usually has to do with the magical medley of the following ingredients: carrots, apples, raisins, shredded coconut, chopped nuts and spices. Sometimes I see pineapple thrown in there, too, and you know from my love for this hummingbird cake that I’m totally down with that.

These scones don’t have the pineapple, but they do have all of the other ingredients and all of the tastiness plus a spiced glaze (and whole wheat flour), so you know it’s good. And I wrote about all of it over on my friend Julia’s blog, A Cedar Spoon, today. So head on over there for the recipe and get ready to feel a sudden urge to bake. They have that effect on people (read: Me).

TGIF, friends! We all deserve the weekend.

    I make Morning Glory muffins quite frequently and I have eaten Morning Glory Bagels (which years ago Panera Bread used to offer as a bagel of the month) , so I just have to try your Morning Glory Scones. Since I love scones I know they will taste so good! Thanks for the recipe.

    These look fantastic – quite a myriad of flavors! I haven’t had much luck with using whole wheat flour in scones, but these sound promising. Thanks for the recipe!
