These are incredible! Moist and not too sweet. I was served these scones with breakfast while staying at the Tabor House Inn in Vermont. They were so good I asked the inn’s owner, Jennifer Bright, for the recipe! If you want to impress breakfast guests – make these. I promise no one will be disappointed :)

    1. [...] They were so good I asked Jennifer for the recipe! I created a new recipe page just for them: Cranberry Yogurt Scones. Yummm! And yes, they were made with Stonyfield [...]

      I was a baking maniac tonight and made this recipe! it’s delicious! Thanks so much for sharing! :)

      Anne, I made these for my family this morning (we’re at the beach in South Carolina) and they love them! Thank you!

      I’m obsessed with these…made them again today! I actually changed things up a bit: I substituted blueberries for cranberries and 1/2 cup of buttermilk (which is reasonably healthy) for the yogurt. The buttermilk was a must since I’m in the South — maybe you can try it out now that you’re in NC! Needless to say, the scones were delicious.

      These were great! All I had on hand was Straus Nonfat Vanilla Yogurt, but I gave it a try and they were delicious. They taste much more decadent than they are! :)

      Wow, this looks delicious!!

      What is the nutrition per serving? They look delicious.

      What if spreadable butter (with less saturated fat-health history) was used in place of regular butter. Would they still turn out? Could applesauc or pumpkin puree be used in place of butter?

      I made these on Christmas morning for my family and they were so impressed. I couldn’t find the cream on top yogurt so I used Whole Milk French Vanilla Stonyfield yogurt instead. Thanks for sharing the recipe!
