Lavender and citrus burst in flavor for this fun inspiring recipe. After buying a bag or oranges and contemplating how to use them, we decided to blend into our lavender scone mix, we came up with this delightful treat. So many enjoy lemon and lavender together and we think that lavender with any citrus brightens the day. Lavender Citrus Scones with Lavender Orange Glaze
1 package Norwood Lavender Farm Lavender Scone Mix 1 egg 1/2 cup orange juice 1/3 cup butter zest from one orange In a medium sized baking bowl combine lavender scone mix, and butter, using a pastry cutter, cut in butter until combined, add egg, orange juice and orange zest. Stir until mixed together. Add dough onto a greased baking sheet shaping into a 8 inch circle, or roll dough using a little extra flour so dough doesn't stick to rolling pin or hands. Cut out 8 circles and lay on prepared cookie sheet. Bake at preheated 425℉ oven for 13-15 minutes or until top is slightly golden. Lavender Orange Glaze 1 cup powdered sugar 1 1/2 Tbsp orange juice 1/2 tsp lavender extract 1/2 tsp grated orange peel In a small mixing bowl combine powdered sugar, orange juice, lavender extract and grated orange peel. Stir until smooth, it should be the consistency of heavy syrup. When scones are golden and still warm from the oven drizzle a teaspoon of glaze over the the top of scones, garnish with a few culinary lavender flower buds and fresh orange zest. Enjoy!

We love strawberry season and couldn't help explore using it with chocolate...here is the amazing result...Lavender Brownie Crepes! Lavender Brownie Crepes
1 cup lavender brownie mix 1/2 cup water 1/2 cup milk 2 eggs In a mixing bowl, whisk together the lavender brownie mix and the eggs. Gradually add in the water, stirring to combine. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Pour the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each crepe. Tilt the pan with a circular motion so that the batter coats the surface evenly. Cook the crepe for about 2 minutes, until the bottom is light brown. Loosen with a spatula, turn and cook the other side. Serve hot with sliced strawberries and whip cream. I love cute pans and this adorable flower pan from Boncook I knew I had to have. The first thing I wanted to try in it was lavender scones in it. It's spring time so you can get some great tasting strawberries. I envisioned strawberries in the batter of Lavender Scone Mix. The Lemon Lavender Glaze was an afterthought that just makes this scone decadent and adds to the spring vibes. So easy to assemble and take about 10 minutes and 15 minutes to cook. Strawberry Lavender Scone Mix with Lemon Lavender Glaze 1 pkg Lavender Scone Mix 1 cup strawberries, chopped 1/2 cup cream or milk 1/3 cup butter 1 egg Lemon Lavender Glaze 3 Tbsp butter melted 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar 2 Tbsp lemon juice 1/2 tsp culinary lavender bud Preheat oven to 425℉. In a medium size mixing bowl dump in your Lavender Scone Mix, using a grater grate your butter into your scone mix. Gently stir the flour over the butter and then add 1 egg, 1/2 cup milk, 1 tsp vanilla. Stir to combine then add your chopped strawberries, folding the dough over the chopped strawberries. Try to be delicate so that you don't squish the strawberries and turn your dough pink. Cook for 13-15 minutes or until golden in color. While you wait for scones to cool assemble your Lemon Lavender Drizzle. Combine powdered sugar and culinary lavender stir to blend. Add melted butter and lemon juice together and stir into your powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. Stick it in a ziplock bag cutting just a little bit of the bottom edge of bag so that frosting drizzles out across your scone mix.
