Lemon Coconut Scones
These scones are so fun for summer! Full of light and refreshing flavors! And, in my opinion, nothing screams nicer weather than a lemon treat! Scones can seem intimidating, but they are such a nice thing to have on hand when you want something to pair with your coffee or tea, or when you want something a just a tad sweet throughout the day! The glaze on these is the best touch, but even a drizzle of white chocolate pairs perfectly with the lemon!
We can’t forget that these are such a tasty way to get in a little boost of collagen, thanks to the addition of Indigo Marine Collagen! Collagen can help support hair, skin, and nail health too – so eating to support the beauty gains never tasted so good! Enjoy!
