These Banana Scones with Chocolate Chips and Almonds are totally worth earmarking a banana for. Please note though that for this recipe you actually don't want a banana that's too far past its prime. Because it will just completely fall apart and dissolve into the scone batter. I typically use a banana that's fully yellow and ripe, but. Toss in the chocolate chips and coat the flour mixture with the chips.
