These scones are a bit healthier than your usual scones, as they don't call for all of the butter. They are more cakey, though, so if you like a crumbly, traditional scone, this isn't the recipe for you! They are very flavorful, and to me the reduced fat is way worth the texture change!

You will need

⅗ cup Whole Wheat Flour 1 ½ cup All Purpose Flour 2 tbsp Granulated Sugar 3/10 cup Packed Brown Sugar 2 tsp Baking Powder ½ tsp Baking Soda ¼ tsp Salt 2/3 cup Sour Cream 3 tbsp melted Butter 1 Egg White 1 tbsp Lemon zest ½ cup chopped Walnuts 1 cup chopped Strawberries

These scones are a bit healthier than your usual scones, as they don't call for all of the butter. They are more cakey, though, so if you like a crumbly, traditional scone, this isn't the recipe for you! They are very flavorful, and to me the reduced fat is way worth the texture change!
