1/2 c sesame seeds
3 Tbsp grated orange zest
3 c unsifted all-purpose flour
3 Tbsp light brown sugar
1 Tbsp baking powder
3/4 tsp salt
3/4 c vegetable shortening (or butter)
1 c orange juice
3 Tbsp granulated sugar

Steps:

1. Heat oven to 425 degrees F. Grease baking sheet. Set aside 1 tbsp. sesame seeds and 1 tbsp. orange zest. In a large bowl, combine flour, remaining sesame seeds, orange zest, brown sugar, baking powder and salt. With a pastry blender or 2 knives, cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

5. Bake scones 15-18 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.
