Cranberry Oat Scones Recipes

OATMEAL CRANBERRY SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C).
• Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Stir in the oatmeal and cranberries. You may need to use your fingers to be sure the cranberries are all separated.
• Whisk together the egg, butter and milk then add the mixture to the dry ingredients. Mix together just until the dry ingredients are moistened. The dough will be sticky.
• Transfer the dough onto an ungreased baking sheet and pat into a circle about 3/4 inches (2 cm) thick. Sprinkle liberally with sugar and score the top into eight wedges.
• Bake on a rack in the middle of the oven for about 12 minutes until lightly browned.

CRAN OAT SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• In a bowl, combine the flour, oatmeal, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Using a pastry blender, cut the cold butter into the dry ingredients until the dough is crumbly. Fold in the cranberries. Add the buttermilk and stir lightly with a wooden spoon until the dough comes together to form a ball. (The dough will be sticky, but resist the temptation to overwork it.)
• On a lightly floured surface, pat the dough into a large circle about 2 inches thick. Cut the dough into wedges. With a spatula, transfer the wedges to a baking sheet lined with parchment and bake for 22 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned. Cool on a wire rack. Best served warm and on the day they are made.

CRANBERRY ORANGE SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, mix 4 cups of flour, 1/4 cup sugar, the baking powder, salt and orange zest. Add the cold butter and mix at the lowest speed until the butter is the size of peas. Combine the eggs and heavy cream and, with the mixer on low speed, slowly pour into the flour and butter mixture. Mix until just blended. The dough will look lumpy! Combine the dried cranberries and 1/4 cup of flour, add to the dough, and mix on low speed until blended.
• Dump the dough onto a well-floured surface and knead it into a ball. Flour your hands and a rolling pin and roll the dough 3/4-inch thick. You should see small bits of butter in the dough. Keep moving the dough on the floured board so it doesn't stick. Flour a 3-inch round plain or fluted cutter and cut circles of dough. Place the scones on a baking pan lined with parchment paper. Collect the scraps neatly, roll them out, and cut more circles.
• Brush the tops of the scones with egg wash, sprinkle with sugar, and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the tops are browned and the insides are fully baked. The scones will be firm to the touch. Allow the scones to cool for 15 minutes and then whisk together the confectioners' sugar and orange juice, and drizzle over the scones.
