Strawberry biscones are a hybrid creation. Yes, a cross between a biscuit and a scone! BISCONES! And, I assure you deeelish!
Fresh Strawberry Scones
Hybrids sometimes make the most beautiful new creations. Yes, a hybrid is an offspring of a cross-breeding. Cross pollination is creating a different genetic constitution.
Strawberry Scone Recipe
Mixtures. combining two or more ‘substances’ where the identities are preserved and there’s a new ‘mix’. on which the identities are retained and are mixed in the form of solutions, suspensions, and colloids.
Scones Strawberry
That’s what newness is all about. So, as I went to work this morning in my laborrrratorrreee, aka, my kitchen, I decided that I wanted to combine my love is biscuits with scones.
Biscuits with Strawberries
I wanted a little crunch on the outside but the velvety softness in places of the exterior of a good ol’ Southern biscuit. That’s what these strawberry biscones (bis{cuit} + {s}cones) are all about. Delighting in the ‘newness’ of age old favorites.
Biscuits and Strawberries
And, using my rustic natural look of food, no two of these biscones look exactly alike. Each has its own ‘dna’ of sorts making its look just unique and beautiful! Now, if you don’t have pearl sugar, then try buying sugar cubes and cracking them up into smaller pieces, but not pulverizing.

You can use regular sugar, too, but I like the happiness of weetle sparks of sugar! Here’s to newness in life and bursts of sweet eats xoxo ~peace~ ally

Hi Ally. Instead of fresh strawberries, do you know if this would work with dehydrated strawberries?
Hi, Suzanne, hummmm, that’s a tough one. Since I’ve never done it w/dehydrated before I’m not sure. You’ll re-hydrate them, right, before using? I’d say give it a try. And, please please, LMK! They’re absolutely deeelish! xoxx ally
Can you use all purpose unbleached flour and do I add an extra teaspoon of baking powder. A new neighbor just moved in across the street and I thought that would be nice to bring her
Yes, JoAnn, you can use that type flour. And, yes, on the extra baking powder. What a kind thoughtful neighbor you are! Will you move next to me!!! xoxx allly
Could you possibly substitute Bisquick or Pioneer biscuit mix and add the strawberries? I’m not physically able to do a lot of baking. If so, how much should you mix up to add the strawberries to?
Hi, Judy, yes I think you could certainly sub Bisquick or Pioneer biscuit mix. That would make it easier. I’d put in an extra teaspoon of baking powder. And, you’ll need to add either coconut sugar or regular sugar, maybe 1/2 or 1/3 cup. Not sure how much sugar in the mixes. Everything else would be same amounts. I’d do 2 cups of the mix. Your consistency should be a thick dough that you scoop and dollop onto your baking sheet. Please let me know how they turn out, luv! xoxx ally
what healthy four alternatives can I use?
Hi Libby! Try almond flour, coconut milk, coconut sugar,and ghee! xoxo ally
They look scrumptious
Thank you, sweetness…I’m telling you, you’ll have happy bisconeeees flitting around your house! xo ~ally
