Print Options
Description
Adapted from an October 2004 Bon Appetit scone recipe, these are a hit every time!
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose Flour
- ⅓ cups Brown Sugar, Packed
- 1 Tablespoon Baking Powder
- ¼ teaspoons Salt
- ½ cups Chilled Butter, Diced
- 1 cup Dried Cranberries
- 1 Tablespoon Orange Zest
- ½ cups Chilled Whipping Cream
- 1 whole Large Egg
Preparation
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Sift flour, sugar, baking powder and salt into a medium bowl.
Add chilled butter, and using fingertips or a pastry cutter, mix together until mixture resembles coarse meal.
Mix in cranberries and orange zest.
Whisk cream and egg in a small bowl until blended.
Gradually add cream mixture to the flour mixture and toss with a fork until dough comes together in moist clumps. (Add more cream as needed if dough is too dry.)
Drop by 1/4 cupfuls onto a baking stone or baking dish lined with parchment paper and bake for 20 minutes, or until golden brown on top (toothpick will come out clean).
Sprinkle with sugar when scones come out of oven.
Enjoy!

This was delicious and so easy to make. A big hit with the kiddos and the hubby, too.
Mine required a little longer to cook, but my oven is special.
