SUPER SIMPLE CRANBERRY COCONUT SCONES



Super Simple Cranberry Coconut Scones image

I had a great simple recipe for savory scones, but just *knew* I could make a great sweet scone by adapting the basic recipe. The results far outweighed my expectations! These are akin to muffin tops, and are delicious for brunch. They are also super easy to make, and since it's just my son and me, I like that the recipe only makes 12-15 scones. I have also made this leaving out all the spices and it was still delicious!
