1 1/4 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour

I'm allergic to oranges, so I substituted lemon zest instead. The scones were still delicious!

I used this recipe as a base and added some dried cranberries and chopped walnuts. They turned out great!

Easy to make and delicious! I used a food processor to make the dough, which made it even easier.

These scones were absolutely delightful! The orange flavor was perfectly balanced, and the scones were light and fluffy. I added a bit of chopped crystallized ginger for an extra zing, and it was a great addition.
