Orange Cranberry Scones
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup sugar
1 Tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
zest of an orange
1 stick frozen butter, grated
2 eggs
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream + some to brush on top
1/4 cup orange juice, plus up to 1/4 cup for glaze
3/4 cup dried cranberries (Craisins)
Sparkling sugar, optional
ORANGE GLAZE :
2 cups powdered sugar
1/4 cup orange juice
Preheat oven to 400°. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and grated orange zest. Grate butter directly into the flour mixture and stir to coat the butter pieces with the flour.
Add the dried cranberries and stir gently to combine. Make a well in the center and set aside. 
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, and orange juice. Pour the egg mixture into the flour mixture and stir just until moistened. 
Turn dough out onto a generously floured surface and pull it together into a round disc, about 3/4 to 1-inch thick. Gently move the disk to the parchment paper lined cookie sheet and cut the disc into eight equal wedges. Brush tops of scones with one or 2 tablespoons of heavy cream and immediately sprinkle the top with the sparkling sugar. Bake 16 to 18 minutes. 
Remove scones from the baking sheet and let cool. Whisk together the powdered sugar and orange juice, adding more or less sugar/juice to desired thickness. Then drizzle over the cranberry scones.

I was in Nashville and had an orange cranberry scone and loved it and have not found them again at any Panera I have been to in CA! Can’t wait to try these!
I love scones! Yours look so good!!! I can’t wait to make them. Do you ever make raisin scones? I would love to see you make those.
I think both of you were excellent teachers. When you said a half cup and a quarter cup makes 3/4 cup. I bet it lit a lot of minds. As a kid I knew two bits made a quarter and a quarter was 25 cents but when it came to a clock I would ask my mom what time and she would say it’s a quarter of five etc. All of a sudden I understood.

I bet these have an amazing Flavor. They look good for sure. Thank you for making these & sharing! Have a great weekend Tom & Melissa 👏👏👏💕🌻
I would have orange zest glaze and coconut powder 😋
To me, these are not scones. As an ex-pat Brit now in Australia, scones do not contain eggs. Having said that, this recipe is one I will definitely make. 😄
I have never eaten a scone, but these sound delicious.
Wow, sometimes I don't like scones because they are dry. This recipe looks like it could yield delicious, moist scones. Thanks for showing how to make them so well.
✍Hello Tom and Melissa…Oh I'm so glad for the recipe you're baking tonight cause I've been looking for a good recipe for "scones" My oldest daughter that lives with me loves scones but I've never made them and we both love cranberries so I'm definitely going to make these so…thank you for the recipe. Good Night😴 God Bless LuvYa! Bye from Ohio🌹
I love orange scones from Panera, but I have to say, your scones look a lot better with the dried cranberries and orange glaze.
Totally going to make these tomorrow, Saturday ❤ last Saturday I made sourdough blueberry scones with my sourdough discard, they were delicious. I learned something from you on this video. To not separate the scones . Makes sense now as to why mine fell flat😢although still tasty😊 Thank you and Melissa ❤
I've never had a scone…..I know, I'm weird. So I don't know if I like them or not. Might try these though.
I love your videos and I would love to see you make the chocolate scones. 😊
Can't wait to make these! Orange cranberry muffins with walnuts are my favorite breakfast snack, so will definitely love these! – Suz, from East Texas
I have never tried orange and cranberry scones but I think I’ll give it a go and I think I would like some whipped fresh cream with it .
Thanks so much for sharing this wonderful recipe. Now I won't have to buy them from the Fresh Market all the time!
