Time 45m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 cups Gold Medal™ self-rising flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon grated orange peel
1/2 cup butter or margarine
1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries, halved
1 egg
1/3 to 1/2 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
1 teaspoon grated orange peel

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400°F. Grease large cookie sheet with shortening or cooking spray. In large bowl, stir together flour, granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon orange peel. Cut in 1/2 cup butter, using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in cranberries.
  • In 1-cup measuring cup, beat egg well. Add buttermilk to make 2/3 cup. Add to flour mixture; stir gently with fork until dry particles begin to cling together. (Do not add more liquid. Mixture may be crumbly.)
  • On lightly floured surface, gently press dough together to form ball. Divide dough in half. Place both halves on cookie sheet; flatten each into 6-inch round. With floured knife or pizza cutter, cut each into 8 wedges. Separate wedges slightly, about 1/2 inch apart.
  • Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on cookie sheet 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in small bowl, mix orange butter ingredients until well blended. Serve warm scones with orange butter.

I thought these scones were just okay. They were a little dry and the cranberries were a bit too tart for my taste.

These scones were delicious! The cranberries added a nice tartness and the scones were very moist. I would definitely make these again.

I've made these scones several times now and they're always a crowd-pleaser. They're the perfect combination of sweet and tart, and the texture is always perfect. I love that I can use fresh or frozen cranberries, depending on what I have on hand.

These scones were a little too dry for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would add a little more milk or cream next time.

I'm not usually a fan of scones, but these were actually really good. They were light and fluffy, with just the right amount of sweetness and tartness.

These scones were a disaster! They were so dry and crumbly that they fell apart when I tried to eat them. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.
