The fresh peppermint substitute was a success! I wish I could add a photo, but they turned out well!

Pro tip #1: I originally did an equal conversion (1 cup of fresh leaves to substitute 1 cup of mint chips); but if you like your scones to be minty, I would either add 1 1/2-2 cups or make the mint chunks pretty big. You do not taste the mint as much when you cut them up in small pieces…but hey, that will save you time too.

Pro tip #2: do not chop up the leaves until you are ready to put them in your dough; they will stay fresher longer that way. I added the leaves right before I added the flour.

I haven’t tried them with fresh peppermint leaves if you do you’ll have to let me know how it goes.

If so, is it recommended? I work at a hydroponics farm and would love to harvest some fresh peppermint for the scones!

Such a fun idea, and so beautifully festive. I’m not sure if we have those peppermint chips in Canada, but I love the sound of them. Thanks so much for sharing! Happy Holidays, Diane! xo

When I realized I had two sizes of candy cane cutters the fun began!
