Tasty and Easy Scones
Ingredients:
wheat flour, white, all-purpose, unenriched
sugars, granulated
leavening agents, baking powder, double-acting, sodium aluminum sulfate
leavening agents, baking soda
salt, table
orange juice, raw
butter, salted
milk, buttermilk, fluid, cultured, lowfat
cranberries, dried, sweetened
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 F.
Combine first 6 ingredients (flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, orange rind).
Cut in butter with a pastry blender until crumbly.
Add buttermilk and cranberries, stirring until moist.
(If super sticky, sprinkle with a little flour; if a little too dry, add in 1-2 tablespoons of buttermilk).
Turn dough onto a floured surface and pat into a circle until about 1/2 inch thick.
Either cut into wedges (a pizza cutter works great!)
for big scones or use a small juice glass or cookie cutter to cut out smaller scones.
Place 1/2 inch apart on a lightly greased cookie sheet.
Bake at 400 degrees for 12-15 minutes until lightly browned.
Keep in an airtight container.
The variation of this recipe are endless.
I have made lemon blueberry, raisin (for cranberries) and walnut (about 1/4 cup chopped) with a little cinnamon, as well as cherry almond.
Even mango.
For bacon cheese scones, omit the sugar, cranberries, rind and increase salt to 1 teaspoon salt total.
Before adding the buttermilk, add 3 crumbled pieces of bacon (previously cooked until crunchy) and 3/4 cup grated cheddar cheese.
Put a little cheese on top of each scone before baking.
So yummy!
