How To Make lady bat's sunday breakfast cranberry-orange scones

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 415 degrees.
  • Step 2
    In med size bowl, add flour,salt,sugar,baking powder and "butter" together. I like to use my bare hands and work the butter and dry ingredients together. 'Till the mixture has the texture of corn-meal.
  • Step 3
    Add eggs',half & half, orange extract, dried cranberries and food color to flour & butter mixture. Mixture will be thick and doughy.
  • Step 4
    On a cookie sheet, divide mixture, depending how big you like your scones, into 4 to six mounds.
  • Step 5
    Cook for 15 minutes. Or until "dry toothpick test" is successful.
  • Step 6
    While scones are in the oven: in a small bowl or ramekin, mix together powdered sugar, 1 Tbsp half & half, 1 tsp orange extract and orange food color.
  • Step 7
    Once scones have been removed from oven, let cool on cookie sheet for about 2 minutes. Drizzle orange glaze over hot scones. Serve with butter and a nice cup of coffee or a cold glass of Milk!
