Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  3. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  4. Incorporate lavender sugar into the dry mixture, folding to combine smoothly.
  5. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
