ORANGE CRANBERRY SCONES WITH OATS
I wanted to bake scones to celebrate April 6, Tartan Plaid Day. I thought I had a box of scone mix in the pantry, but No! So I whipped these up from scratch that morning to take to work. I baked them in a mini-scone pan by Nordic Ware, but a muffin pan or cookie sheet will also work. The orange rind and cranberries were a hit combination.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375° and grease a 12-cup scone pan or muffin pan. Or make drop scones like drop biscuits.
- Stir together all dry ingredients until well blended. Cut in butter until crumbly, then stir in orange rind and cranberries.
- Beat egg well in measuring cup, and add milk to make 1/2 cup. Stir in flavoring.
- Combine wet and dry ingredients and stir until it forms a soft dough. Add a tablespoon or two of milk if necessary to get the soft dough consistency.
- Drop by heaping spoonfuls into a scone pan, a small-well muffin pan, or just onto a greased cookie sheet like drop biscuits. Bake 20-23 minutes. Cool 10 minutes before serving.
- Scones may also be drizzled with a thin butter-cream icing: Stir together a tablespoon of melted butter, 1 1/2 tablespoons cream, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla flavoring. Blend in about 1 cup powdered sugar and stir until smooth. Drizzle over warm scones and cool until glaze hardens.
