I bought some ground cardamom yesterday and it has been filling my kitchen with it’s fabulous aroma ever since I got it home.  I had to make something with it this morning, so I give you–Lemon Cardamom Scones.

These turned out so delicious.  Crunchy on the outside and dark and a little moist on the inside.  Next time I might try adding eggs, to make them more protein-rich.
