Lemon Lavender Scones with Honey Glaze
Bright lemon, a whisper of lavender and a honey glaze that sets into a thin shell. These are the scones we bake when friends are coming over and we want the kitchen to smell like we tried very hard (we didn't).

Why this pairing works
Lemon is lavender's best friend in the kitchen. Its acidity lifts the floral notes so they taste fresh instead of perfumey, and honey rounds it all out.
