CRANBERRY ORANGE SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 410F/210C. Line a baking tray with a liner or parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, and sugar. Then, add your cold butter. Mix until the butter is just combined-as in, the mixture still looks pretty dry but there are not large chunks of butter.
• Set a medium bowl on a scale, add your eggs, and add enough milk to make 10oz. You may not need all 10oz of liquid for the batter. Every batter is a little different.
• Add half of the milk and egg mixture to the dry ingredients, mixing gently. Continue to add until you have a cohesive scone batter; you want your scone batter to be pretty dry so it holds its shape. Add in the orange zest and cranberries. Then, on a large clean surface or large liner, sprinkle some flour and add your scone batter. Knead a few times, then roll out to about 1 inch thick. Use a 2.5-inch cutter to make your individual scones. Combine scraps to form another 1-inch piece to cut more 2.5 inch scones out. Be careful not to overwork the dough.
• Place 8 scones to a baking tray, and brush the tops with an egg wash (I just use the leftover milk and egg mixture). Store the scones in the fridge until the oven is heated. Bake for 9 minutes, then rotate the pan and bake for another 8-10 minutes. You want golden brown scones, so keep an eye on the oven.
• Let them cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Best served the day of; store in an air-tight container.
• To make glaze whisk together powdered sugar and orange juice then use a spoon to drizzle on top of the cooled scones.

ORANGE CRANBERRY SCONES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Rehydrate the cranberries by placing them in a small bowl and covering with boiling water. Let sit for at least 10 minutes, until plump, then drain and spread out on a paper towel to dry.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, and baking powder. Use a pastry cutter (or your fingers) to incorporate the Private Selection® Salted French Butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gently fold in the cranberries.
• In a medium bowl or measuring cup, beat the eggs, then add the heavy cream, vanilla, and orange zest and whisk to combine.
• Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold with a spatula to combine; do not overmix.
• Place a sheet of parchment on your work surface and lightly dust with flour. Turn the dough out onto the floured parchment and pat into a circle about 7 inches in diameter. Lift the parchment paper onto a baking sheet and refrigerate the dough round uncovered for at least 20 minutes, up to 45 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C)
• Use a floured bench scraper to cut the dough round into 8 wedges. Separate the wedges and carefully space evenly on the baking sheet.
• Make the egg wash: In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and cream. Brush each scone generously with the egg wash.
• Bake the scones for about 20 minutes, until they are puffed and golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
• Make the orange drizzle: In a medium bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, orange zest, and orange juice until smooth. Either transfer to a piping bag and snip off the corner or use a spoon to drizzle the glaze back and forth over the scones.

CRANBERRY ORANGE SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a sheet pan with parchment or silicone mat.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer or food processor, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Add the butter and, with the mixer on low speed (or the food processor on "pulse"), mix the butter into the flour until the butter is the size of peas. If you don't have a stand mixer or a food processor, you can freeze the butter and grate it into the dry ingredients, or you can cut the butter into the flour by hand with a pastry cutter or with two knives.
• In a large measuring cup or small bowl, whisk together ⅔ cup of cream, egg and orange zest. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir, mix or pulse just until blended. Do not over-mix. The dough should be damp and should hold together when pinched. If it's too dry, add a little bit more cream (up to 1 cup may be necessary). If it's too wet, sprinkle in a little bit of extra flour. Gently fold in the cranberries.
• Dump the dough onto a very well-floured surface and knead it lightly and quickly just a few times. It helps to put flour on your hands to prevent sticking. Pat the dough into a circle that's 1-inch thick. Using a pizza cutter or knife that is sprayed with cooking spray before each slice, cut the circle into 8 wedges.
• Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet, leaving 2 inches between each scone.
• Cover loosely with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
• Remove the cover, brush the tops of the scones with a little bit of cream, and bake for 20-25 minutes (or until the tops are lightly browned and the insides are fully baked). Remove from the oven and cool for a few minutes while you prepare the glaze.
