Recently at Betty’s: Freeze & Bake Cranberry-Walnut Greek Yogurt Scones

December 12, 2014 by Leave a Comment

Happy Friday!

I can’t even believe that there are only 2 weekends left before Christmas. I have a ton to do, no doubt like everyone everywhere. We’re hosting our first Christmas this year, in our first home, and I am pretty excited/slightly overwhelmed by it all. My parents are coming, plus my brother, sister-in-law, and their two girls. The girls are 2 and 4 and they are in love with Casper, so it should be a pretty fun time.

We pretty much have the Christmas dinner menu figured out. I’m roasting my first standing rib roast and making a version of a loaded potato tart from Urban Farmer, one our favorite restaurants here in Portland.  We’ll also roast some brussels and my mom wants to make mini Yorkshire puddings, as well. For Christmas breakfast I’m making cinnamon rolls and my mom will probably bring some of our favorite Basque-style chorizo for us to make, too.

Cranberry-Walnut Greek Yogurt Scones

This weekend I have plans to do some things ahead like make some biscuits to freeze for holiday breakfasting, and I want to make these pignoli cookies that Tracy made for my mom. My mom brought me like 3 pounds of pine nuts that she foraged this year–it was a good year for pine nuts, apparently she got like 20 pounds! So, I really need to do something with them. I also have plans to make a batch or two of these scones. I mean they freeze so well and my family will definitely appreciate a warm and quick breakfast while they’re here…plus, it will mean more time for playing, visiting, and coffee drinking.

You can find the scones recipe over at Betty Crocker! Cheers and happy weekending!!

    These scones look perfect, Cindy! Good luck on your standing rib roast! I just know it’s going to be amazing. I had no idea people could forage for pine nuts, but that’s incredible. I also have an almond pine nut cookie on the blog if you’re looking for more ideas 🙂
