They certainly look like something I should make. I most especially would like some of that cherry preserve you’ve got there – that looks like it would grace any scone, almond or otherwise :)
Yes, I think that would work just fine. I think the only thing that could be missing is some of the toasted-ness. Another option would be to buy some finely ground almonds and try toasting them in a dry skillet to get some added flavor. I think either way would be good. Good luck!
I wish I had some of these waiting in my freezer for tomorrow morning. I have some wonderful fig preserves that would go so well with these. Thanks for sharing!
I bookmarked this post immediately, and just made the scones tonight for my new blog’s first entry! Thanks for the posting and the motivation. -Dana, http://www.ladolcebacon.blogspot.com
These sound great! I have almost all of the ingredients and I may make these this week! I love scones – my favorite are chocolate chip but it would b nice to try something different.
Love your blog! I found you from the Pioneer Woman and can’t wait to read more!
Just dropping in to say, in an extremely embarassingly fangirly way, that I adore your site, and your recipes make me itch to try them all at once. I love cooking even more now.

These look lovely. I wonder if I could use almond meal (from TJ’s) in place of the ground almonds. I don’t have a food processor yet!

Delicious looking; I have neither had nor made a scone in a couple of years now!

Thank you for reminding me – I’ve had “make scones” on my to-do list for a few weeks now. This is the kick in the butt I needed! These are beautiful!
