These scones are so cute! I used a heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut them out. They were perfect for Valentine's Day.

These scones are vegan! I used plant-based milk and butter, and they turned out perfectly. They're a great option for people with dietary restrictions.

I made these scones gluten-free by using a gluten-free flour blend. They turned out great! They were just as light and fluffy as the regular scones.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I used sunflower seeds instead of walnuts. They worked great and added a nice crunch to the scones.

These scones are a great base recipe. You can add any kind of dried fruit, nuts, or spices that you like. I've made them with blueberries, chocolate chips, and even pumpkin spice.

I found that the scones were a bit dry. I would add an extra egg yolk to the recipe next time to make them more moist.

These scones are a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar in the recipe by half next time.

I'm not a big fan of raisins, so I omitted them from the recipe. The scones were still delicious. I added a few extra cinnamon chips to make up for the lack of raisins.

These scones are a great way to use up leftover cinnamon chips and raisins. I always have some on hand and they're a great addition to these scones.

I love that these scones can be made ahead of time. I often make a batch on the weekend and then reheat them during the week for breakfast. They're just as good the next day.

I used dried cranberries instead of raisins and they worked great. The scones were still moist and flavorful. I also added a sprinkle of chopped walnuts for extra crunch.

I added a glaze to the scones after they cooled and it really took them to the next level. The glaze was made with powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract. It was the perfect finishing touch.

I followed the recipe exactly and the scones turned out perfectly. They were golden brown and had a delicious cinnamon-raisin flavor. I served them with butter and jam and they were a big hit with my family.

These scones were a hit! They were light and fluffy, with just the right amount of sweetness. The cinnamon chips and raisins added a nice flavor and texture contrast. I would definitely make these again.
