Yum! These scones were delicious. I made them for a brunch party and they were a huge hit. The rhubarb gave them a nice tart flavor and the scones were so light and fluffy.

I've made these scones several times now and they always turn out great. They're so easy to make and the flavor is amazing. I love the tartness of the rhubarb and the sweetness of the scones. They're perfect for a quick breakfast or snack.

These rhubarb scones were a delightful treat! The combination of tart rhubarb and sweet, crumbly scones was simply irresistible. The scones were easy to make and turned out perfectly golden brown. I served them warm with a dollop of whipped cream and
