Introducing....banana nut scones!!!
It's okay. I'll wait while you swoon.
Even my husband, who usually is not a fan of scones, absolutely loved these. His blood sugar, however, did not. I've mentioned how I love to bake, right? And how hard it is to bake something nutritious? Most of the time, I do succeed, but this is soooo not the case.
These are ooey, gooey, ridiculously sinful. While I'm eating them for breakfast right now, they're not much of a breakfast food. Anything topped with brown sugar is more of a dessert than breakfast (so says the girl who usually eats oatmeal for breakfast -- PLAIN oatmeal with raisins). And, to be fair, they're really not that sweet. They just have a lot of "bad" carbs for diabetics.
However, my diet needs to be a bit different from my husband's. I run. A lot. And I need carbs. The "bad" ones. ;)
Plus, they're oh, so good. And if you have a strong cup of coffee with you, how much better can life get?
So we've decided these are a special treat, not an everyday occurrence. But right now, until I eat them all, it's a good week.
Recipe can be found here. Happy Ash Wednesday!

They look so yummy!
They look so good - except I would leave out the nuts. :)
That's just cruel. Just say'n. lol. I didn't give up sugar, but gave up chocolate. Plus restricting sweets.
Oh, these look so yummy. I think I'll make them in the next few days. Thanks for sharing the recipe. :)
Um...yum!!! Dessert, schmessert...bananas= healthy! ;-)
I feel like you posted this to torture me. You can apologize by mailing me some scones.
