Instructions

1. Start by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C) and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. Add the cold, cubed unsalted butter to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
4. Next, stir in the granulated sugar and dried lavender.
5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, honey, and egg.
6. Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Avoid overmixing as it can make the scones tough.
7. Lightly flour a clean surface and turn out the dough onto it. Gently knead the dough a few times until it comes together.
8. Shape the dough into a circle that's approximately 1 inch thick.
9. Use a sharp knife or biscuit cutter to cut the dough into 8 wedges or rounds.
10. Place the scones on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with a little milk for a lovely golden finish.
11. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown and cooked through.
12. Allow the scones to cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving.
13. Serve these delicious scones warm, with a dollop of butter, a drizzle of honey, your favorite jam, or even a sprinkle of powdered sugar.
