Time 1h7m

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 c. all-purpose flour + ¼ c. for work surface
3 t. baking powder
½ c. granulated sugar
¼ t. salt
½ c. cold unsalted butter
½ c. heavy cream
¼ c. sour cream
1 large egg
1 t. vanilla extract
¼ t. orange extract
1 t. orange zest, preferably organic
1 c. craisins
2/3 c. powdered sugar
1-2 T. fresh orange juice

Steps:

  • 1. Line a large, rimmed baking parchment paper or a Silpat® baking mat. Set aside. 2. Mix two cups flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Cut in butter with fork until butter is in pea-sized pieces. 3. In a separate bowl, combine the heavy cream, sour cream, egg, vanilla extract, orange extract, and orange zest. Whisk to combine. 4. Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients just until combined. Add in the craisins and stir until just mixed. 5. Sprinkle ¼ cup of flour onto a clean work surface. Transfer scone batter onto floured surface and lightly knead into a ball. Press the dough down into a ½" high rectangle (approximately 6" x 10"). Cut in half lengthwise, and then each half into 3 rectangles. Then, cut each rectangle diagonally to create triangle-shaped pieces. 6. Transfer the scones to the prepared baking sheet, leaving 1-2" between them. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before baking. 7. Pre-heat oven to 400°F, then add the baking sheet to oven when ready. Bake the scones for 18-22 minutes, or until they are nicely golden brown and cooked through. Remove from oven and cool for 5-10 minutes. 8. While the scones are cooling, prepare the orange glaze by stirring the powdered sugar and orange juice together in a small bowl until thoroughly combined. 9. Serve the scones warm drizzled with some of the orange glaze on top. Enjoy!

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 1/4 Cups all purpose flour
1/3 Cup sugar
1 Tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 Cup cold butter (Cubed)
1 Cup buttermilk
1 1/2 Cups dried cranberries (, divided)
2 1/2 teaspoons orange zest
2 teaspoon maple syrup

  • Add butter cubes and mix in with a pastry blender until dough becomes coarse crumbs.
  • Stir in buttermilk until just moistened. Mix and fold in 1/2 of dried cranberries and orange zest. Mix until completely incorporated. You can use a Kitchen Aid with a dough hook. This is the easiest method.

  • When cooled make the glaze and drizzle on scones on some parchment or waxed paper. Enjoy

CRANBERRY ORANGE SCONES

Provided by Ina Garten

Time 55m

Yield 14 to 16 scones

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 cups plus 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar, plus additional for sprinkling
2 tablespoons baking powder
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 tablespoon grated orange zest
3/4 pound cold unsalted butter, diced
4 extra-large eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup cold heavy cream
1 cup dried cranberries
1 egg beaten with 2 tablespoons water or milk, for egg wash
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar, plus 2 tablespoons
4 teaspoons freshly squeezed orange juice

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.

ORANGE CRANBERRY SCONES RECIPE BY TASTY



Orange Cranberry Scones Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: dried cranberries, boiling water, all purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, Private Selection® Salted French Butter, large eggs, heavy cream, vanilla extract, orange zest, large egg, cream, powdered sugar, orange, orange juice

Provided by Tasty

Categories     Desserts

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup dried cranberries
boiling water, for soaking cranberries
2 ½ cups all purpose flour, plus more for dusting
⅓ cup granulated sugar
2 ½ teaspoons baking powder
8 tablespoons Private Selection® Salted French Butter, cubed and chilled
2 large eggs
½ cup heavy cream, plus 2 tablespoons, cold
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon orange zest
1 large egg
1 tablespoon cream
¾ cup powdered sugar
1 orange, zested
2 tablespoons orange juice

Steps:

  • Rehydrate the cranberries by placing them in a small bowl and covering with boiling water. Let sit for at least 10 minutes, until plump, then drain and spread out on a paper towel to dry.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, and baking powder. Use a pastry cutter (or your fingers) to incorporate the Private Selection® Salted French Butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gently fold in the cranberries.
  • In a medium bowl or measuring cup, beat the eggs, then add the heavy cream, vanilla, and orange zest and whisk to combine.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold with a spatula to combine; do not overmix.
  • Place a sheet of parchment on your work surface and lightly dust with flour. Turn the dough out onto the floured parchment and pat into a circle about 7 inches in diameter. Lift the parchment paper onto a baking sheet and refrigerate the dough round uncovered for at least 20 minutes, up to 45 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C)
  • Use a floured bench scraper to cut the dough round into 8 wedges. Separate the wedges and carefully space evenly on the baking sheet.
  • Make the egg wash: In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and cream. Brush each scone generously with the egg wash.
  • Bake the scones for about 20 minutes, until they are puffed and golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
  • Make the orange drizzle: In a medium bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, orange zest, and orange juice until smooth. Either transfer to a piping bag and snip off the corner or use a spoon to drizzle the glaze back and forth over the scones.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • For a sweeter scone, add an extra ¼ cup of sugar to the dough.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • To make sure the scones are evenly cooked, rotate the baking sheet halfway through the baking time.
  • For a crispy exterior, brush the tops of the scones with melted butter before baking.
  • Serve the scones warm with your favorite spread, such as butter, jam, or clotted cream.

Conclusion:

These Starbucks Cranberry Orange Scones are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their moist and fluffy texture, sweet and tangy flavor, and festive appearance, they are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
