Quick Yogurt Scones image

Easy to make with staple ingredients, these scones are wonderful for breakfast or with a nice cup of hot tea or coffee. The recipe came from a cookbook called "Stand By Your Pan: Country Music Cookbook" by Diane Pfeifer. Her funny alternative country-music-inspired title for the recipe is "Diggin' Up Scones" :)
