APPLE PEAR SCONES
I love scones, but haven't tried this recipe. My mom clipped it out from a magazine awhile ago. Courtesy Rao's Coffee Roasting Company in Amherst, Massachusetts. Note: I just noticed the 22-28 minute baking time. In my experience with scones, that seems lengthy. I would watch the baking time.
