Servings: Makes 8-10 scones
 
Ingredients:
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tbsp. granulated sugar
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 cup (1/2 stick/2 oz./56g) firm unsalted butter or margarine
1/2 cup whipping cream
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 cup sweetened dried cranberries (such as Craisins)
2 tsp. finely-grated orange peel

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 425°F/220°C. Lightly grease a cookie sheet.

Combine dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Work butter or margarine into dry ingredients until butter is the size of small peas, using a pastry blender or fork. Add remaining ingredients, mixing just until the dry ingredients are moist.

Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and gather into a ball. Pat into a circle 3/4-inch thick. Cut dough into 8 to 10 wedges. Place on cookie sheet. Sprinkle with sugar. Bake 12 minutes or until golden brown.

These scones are delicious. They're very easy to make, and turn out great! You can substitute in a 1/2 cup of chocolate chips and a 1/2 cup Craisins for a fun and yummy twist. A simple way to dress up any breakfast!
