French Toast Scones (!) and a GIVEAWAY!!!

You may have noticed that I enjoy baking...a lot. But, there are times when I'm just too lazy to read a recipe, assemble ingredients and measure out flour. These times are called MORNINGS! No, even though I want to be one, I am not a morning person....just ask my family.

So, I was really excited to try this King Arthur Flour French Toast Scone Mix!
First, let me say that if I could dab the mix behind my ears, I would. It would be my signature fragrance; it smells like I imagine heaven does.

Second, the mix and the instructions are simple. Just add butter, egg and milk. And the batter....I probably could have eaten the entire bowl raw. I settled for licking my fingers...and the spoon...and the bench scraper...

Third, I recognize all of the ingredients in the mix. I like that. And who but King Arthur adds Vietnamese cinnamon to their mixes?!?

Fourth, these are serious scones! They bake up big and fluffy and ,I'll just say it, glorious! If you've only ever had a scone from the coffee shop, these will knock your socks off! You'll want to try them!

Wouldn't a basket of scone mixes be a great gift for a new mom who doesn't have time to bake anymore, but still wants to? I want a stash for my pantry...for lazy mornings...or company...or tea time...

Guess what?!? The nice people at King Arthur Flour are going to send one lucky Bake at 350 reader a French Toast Scone Mix of their very own! Yay! Hop on over to King Arthur and tell me what other scone mix you'd love to try. I'm thinking Lemon-Blueberry...in the meantime, maybe they'll consider a line of women's fragrances? :)

Drawing will be held Sunday at 8pm central. Good Luck!
