We liked this recipe a lot and it was quick and easy to make. I am going to experiment with different types of apple to enhance the apple flavor. I used gala today and the apple was very mild. I think my family will be asking for these again in the future.

Overall, not bad. I added spices, and fresh it was ok. But, for me, the baking soda taste was too much. I am very careful with measurements, but I couldn't stand the taste of baking soda in these. After they were cool, it was even stronger.

It was tough to rate this recipe. I gave it 3 stars because I felt that it could have been a little sweeter, and the apple taste didn't really come through. But I wanted to give more stars because it was super easy to make. Like other people I added cinnamon and nutmeg to the batter. Next time I will double the amount of cinnamon and nutmeg and maybe add some more sugar. With a little work, this could be an awesome recipe.

This is one of my favorite new recipes. Works well with alternative ingredients: spelt flour, almond milk, and Earth Balance Margarine. They freeze very well.

I loved these! Also added some cinnamon to the recipe. They are best when fresh as they are so nice and crisp on the outside, moist on the inside. I had many leftovers so I've been microwaving them when I want a piece. Great stuff!

As others stated, they were a little bland and I couldn't taste the apple at all. Had to add a little more flour to get a stiff enough dough to knead. Next time I will mix the apples with cinnamon & sugar and maybe a little nutmeg to add some flavor.

It was a great scone! Not too sweet, and you really can taste the apple.

This recipe was pretty good. It can also be made with water for lactose intolerancy, but use half as much cuz water is thinner. I chopped my apple into small slices and bits, which works well. Yum!

I really enjoyed these! I would rather use apple pie filling or chunks of apple rather than having it shredded. I also added more sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg to the batter for extra taste and sweetness. This is a easy recipe and great for fast breakfast or a on the go snack.

These are pretty good. If you want them to bake up a little better use 2 cups of self-rising flour vs. all purpose, 1/4 c. of sugar, 1/2 tsp. of baking powder, 1 tsp. of cream of tartar, and 1/4 tsp. of salt. Freeze the butter and grate it on a cheese grater. I added 1/4 tsp. of nutgeg and 1/2 tsp. of cinnamon and vanilla. I always use half and half instead of milk. I used a red delicious apple and added 1/4 c. of raisins. These came out nice, but next time I might add two apples for more apple taste.

I followed suggestions to reduce the milk by half and also doubled the recipe without problems. Rave reviews from coworkers. Thank you!

These are great scones! My twist to these already good scones is to increase the sugar to 1/2 c,lactaid milk to 1/2c add 1 tsp Maple flavoring, 1/2 tsp of allspice and forgo the currants. I formed these into individual scones, patted them in flour and then after placing them on baking sheets, sprinkled with sugar and cinnamon. I baked them for approx 12-15 minutes. They were wonderful!!

Pretty bland. Cakey. Not scone type. It was salvagable with some fruit marmalade. Won't be making this again.

I also found that reducing the milk was necessary and spice was needed, so I added 1 teaspoon cinnamon and 1/4 tsp. each of nutmeg and allspice. They were a huge hit! Thanks for the recipe!

This recipe was not good. I had to add almost 3 times as much milk to get a dough. I had to make it for 25 minutes rather than 15. It smelled really good while baking and tasted wonderful but was still a little doughy and left a bad aftertaste. I will be taking this one out of my recipe box.

Bottom line: these are pretty good. Their flavor isn't going to blow you away, but they have a nice consistency to them. They would be a good side for a Sunday breakfast or brunch. I added cinnamon to the dough, and I got a decent (gentle) flavor out of a fuji apple. (I left the skin on because I hate peeling apples.) I also substituted soy milk, and because I had some "dying" grapes in the fridge, I quartered about 1/4 cup and added them in. (Remember not to stir/kneed too hard! This is not a wine press! lol). I definitely think I'll make them again, but I want to investigate adding nutmeg, and probably allspice.

This is a good recipe for what it is- light, fluffy, and very, very Starbucks. I usually like classic scones, very dense and craggy with a bit of buttermilk tang. This is more like cake than bread- not really what I want in a scone. If that's what you're looking for this is a good recipe. Not very strong apple taste- maybe add a splash of cider?

The apple scones turned out pretty good although I made many changes to the recipe. I added a palmful of brown sugar and a bit of vanilla and cinnamon to the batter. I also used light soymilk instead of the milk. I was disappointed that it wasn't very sweet, so I made a cinnamon glaze and drizzled it on each scone. The major problem I had with the scones was that they turned out very cakelike, which was not the texture I was going for.
