Our travels continue! Last week was a blast. Pete and I finished up our time without the kids at Big Cedar Lodge in Missouri. The beautiful lodge rooms provided scenic views of the wooded grounds and Table Rock Lake. Our time there featured a hike in the woods, some gorgeous sunsets, many hours rocking on the porch listening to the falls, and visits from the “cookie lady” who delivers fresh gingerbread cookies in the evenings.
Blueberry and Cornmeal Scones
Makes 8 scones
1 1/2 cups plus 2 tablespoons whole wheat pastry flour
1/2 cup cornmeal
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoons sea salt
1 tablespoon honey
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries
Preheat oven to 425°F and adjust rack to middle position. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Whisk together flour, cornmeal, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Add cream, honey, and blueberries and stir until a dough forms. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and quickly pat the dough into a 8-inch round. Cut the dough into 8 wedges. Place the wedges on the parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 18 minutes until light brown. Cool for 5 minutes before serving. Serve warm.

Scones are one of my favorite breakfast treats. I can't wait to try this recipe. Thanks!
How absolutely gorgeous these are…yum!
Carrie, your time in the Ozarks looks like it was a great success. So glad to hear the girls had an amazing experience at camp. Your roadside visits look fantastic as do your blueberry scones. xo
I am a scone fanatic!! I love these! Can we have a scone party when you get back in CA?!
Um – there's no blueberry in the ingredients – when do you add them?
Do you use fresh or frozen blueberries? and about how much?
Erika and Paola: Thanks for catching that for me! It's 1 1/2 cups of fresh blueberries. I also added that detail to the ingredient list.
Gaby: A scone party sounds great! Can't wait to get together again!
Beautiful post! I'm so glad the girls had such a great time!!
you are an absolute MIND READER!! i just got my first annual 20# box of local blueberries two weeks ago and i have been trying to decide what to use them for when 4 girlfriends come to visit this weekend — thanks for posting these — i cant wait to try them!
i've been looking for a good scone recipe. thanks for posting this! xxoo
I love finding those little treasures on holiday! I'm currently travelling around, too – this is the 1st year I'm scouting food ideas rather than lamenting not being able to cook for myself … Enjoy your trip
Wow, small world. I'm guessing you might be talking about Kanakuk camps. If so, I was a counselor there years ago! Also, I buy Serenity Farms at our local natural food store, but didn't realize they had a store/cafe. Will have to check it out, thanks!
Mara: Wow! Between food and kamp we definitely have a lot in common!
We worked the summer of '96 at k-7. You?
made these for breakfast today and they were super tasty, thanks!
I just discovered your lovely blog via Tartelette. So glad I did, because your food ideologies are right up my alley!!! And then I read this post, and my heart swooned. Big Cedar Lodge, picking your girls up at camp … I immediately knew you were referring to Kanakuk! Of course, I see another commenter figured that out as well! I grew up in the Ozarks (Springfield), and worked at K-Kountry the summers of ’01 and ’02. I have the best memories from those times! I’m now living in TX, and my oldest will be able to go to camp in a few years. I’ve already told my husband we’ll have to spend a few days at Big Cedar when that time comes! Thanks for bringing back the memories! Blessings to you!
How fun! A fellow Komo counselor! We just got back from another trip out the Ozarks and the kids had a blast at Kanakuk. Best place on earth!
Yes, Kanakuk is the best place on earth! Quick question … is there a way to print your recipes without printing the entire web page? I tried to copy and paste to a word doc, but it won’t let me.
I added the print link. When I switched over to wordpress last fall some of the coding got lost. You should be able to print it now!
