Personal
Notes: I love these with golden raisins, dried cranberries or dried cherries. Mini chocolate chips would probably work too but high temperature might melt them. Maybe good but messy . I add a little cinnamon and nutmeg for fruit scones. If dried fruit is a little hard let it sit in very hot water a few minutes then drain and pat dry.
