These scones were amazing! I made them for my family for breakfast and they loved them. They were light and fluffy, with a perfect crumb. The lemon flavor was subtle but present, and the walnuts added a nice crunch. I highly recommend this recipe.

These scones were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would add a little more milk next time. The lemon flavor was nice and the walnuts added a nice crunch. Overall, they were good but not great.

I'm surprised by all the positive reviews for this recipe. I found the scones to be very dry and crumbly. The lemon flavor was also very weak. I won't be making these again.

These scones were a waste of time and ingredients. They were dense and dry, and the lemon flavor was completely overpowered by the walnuts. I would not recommend this recipe.

These scones were a disappointment. They were dry and crumbly, and the lemon flavor was barely noticeable. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.
