<p>Fall is just a few days away and we are already thinking about delicious baking and cooking with anything pumpkin, cinnamon, clover, ginger and warm spices. Although I love all those flavors I just found a giant section of our property full of blackberries that needed to be picked. Let me tell you, it was harder than I thought, the thorns on those bushes are not forgiving but I was able to get a pretty good size batch of blackberries.</p>



<p>I wanted to make a quick recipe with some of the blackberries I picked so I decided to make a batch of scones because they&#8217;re very simple to make, I didn&#8217;t need to have the oven running for too long as it&#8217;s still summer time and didn&#8217;t want to overheat the house.</p>



<p>I made the scones with wheat flour but this recipe is very simple to have substitutions so if you don&#8217;t like wheat flour just substitute with all purpose flour. I also used fresh blackberries but substitute the fruit topping with any toppings you have on hand like blueberries or any other type of berries, dry cranberries or raisins or chocolate chips. I added sour cream to scones but if you don&#8217;t want to use sour cream increase the milk amount by 1/4 of a cup.</p>

<p><strong>Kitchen tools you need:</strong></p>



<p>2 mixing bowls<br>Fork or whisk<br>Rubber spatula<br>Measuring cups and spoons <br>Baking Sheet<br>Parchment paper<br>Cooling rack (optional)</p>



<p>Tip: if adding fresh fruit toppings to the scones, use a spatula to slowly fold the fruit to the dough.</p>
