Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

1 cup Gold Medal™ whole wheat flour
1 cup Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons grated orange peel
1 1/2 teaspoons cream of tartar
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup cold butter, cut into 8 pieces
1/3 cup milk
1/4 cup orange juice
1/2 cup sweetened dried cranberries
1/3 cup powdered sugar
2 to 3 teaspoons milk

Steps:

Heat oven to 350°F. In large bowl, mix flours, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, the orange peel, cream of tartar, baking soda and salt. Cut in butter, using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), until mixture looks like fine crumbs. Stir in 1/3 cup milk, the orange juice and cranberries just until dry ingredients are moistened.
On ungreased cookie sheet, pat dough into 8-inch round. Cut into 8 wedges; do not separate.
Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool 5 minutes; remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack. Cool 10 minutes.
In small bowl, mix powdered sugar and 2 to 3 teaspoons milk until thin enough to drizzle. Drizzle over warm scones. Serve warm or cool.

Tips:

Use Almond Flour for a Nutty Flavor: Almond flour adds a slightly nutty flavor and a moist texture to the scones.
Chill the Butter and Cranberries: This helps to create flaky layers in the scones and prevents the cranberries from sinking to the bottom.
Don't Overwork the Dough: Overworking the dough will make the scones tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
Use Freshly Squeezed Orange Juice: Freshly squeezed orange juice adds a bright, citrusy flavor to the scones.
Serve Warm with Orange Glaze: The orange glaze adds a sweet, tangy flavor to the scones. Serve them warm for the best experience.

These gluten-free cranberry orange scones are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or snack. They are perfect for any occasion, from a casual brunch to a holiday gathering.
