These cranberry and orange scones have a nice bright flavor to them. We love this flavor combo during the holidays. Especially around Thanksgiving these fit right in because of the cranberry flavor!

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 365 degrees
- In a large bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Cut the cold cubes of butter into the flour mixture until the butter is completely incorporated and the mixture has obtained a fine, mealy texture.
- Add the cranberries and orange zest and gently mix together.
- Fold in the buttermilk and orange juice and mix together until just combines and the mixture has formed into dough.
- Form the dough into an 8 inch disc, about 1 inch thick.
- Cut the disc into 8 wedges and place the scones onto a parchment lined baking sheet.
- Brush the tops of each scone with a small amount of cream and bake for about 15 to 20 minutes or until the scones puff up and the tops just start to brown.
- Serve warm with a side of jam, honey, and butter.
