LABOR DAY BREAKFAST

Each year our church does a fundraiser, Labor Day Breakfast. This, my folks, is the-best-breakfast! And because I am a carb lover, I am in sweet roll heaven. All homemade, with the best sausage on the side..... The diet is on hold today.

My contribution this year....

BLUEBERRY SCONES

2 C. flour

1/4 C. sugar

1 Tbl. baking powder

1/4 teas. salt

1/4 teas. baking soda

1 Tbl. grated orange or lemon zest (I used orange)

1/4 C. butter/margarine (I used margarine)

3/4 C. buttermilk or plain yogurt (I used buttermilk)

1 egg

1 teas. vanilla

1-2 c. blueberries (I used fresh)

Mix dry ingredients together in a large bowl. Cut the butter into the dry ingredients with a pastry blender, until fine.

Mix the wet ingredients in another bowl then add to the dry ingredients, stirring with a fork until all the mixture has been moistened. Fold in the blueberries.

I try not to mix any more than I have to.

Drop by large spoonfuls onto a parchment paper lined cookie sheet and flatten a little so the dough is not mounded.

Bake at 400 for 18 minutes.

This recipe comes from the Blog, What Matters Most? Anneliese's Low Fat Blueberry Scones.

Well, I'm out the door! I am one of the scrambled egg people, so gotta get,,,,,,, ya know,,,,

Chop, Chop, daylight's a burnin'!!!! (not really, it is pitch black out!)

Have a great Labor Day....
