Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/4 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1/2 cup quick-cooking oats
3 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons grated orange peel
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup firm butter or margarine

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400°F. In medium bowl, mix flour, oats, 3 tablespoons sugar, the baking powder, orange peel and salt. Cut in butter, using pastry blender or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions, until mixture looks like fine crumbs. Stir in egg and just enough half-and-half so dough leaves side of bowl.

These scones are perfect for a quick and easy breakfast or snack. They're also great for freezing, so you can always have a fresh scone on hand.

I'm not a huge fan of orange scones but these were actually really good! The orange flavor wasn't too overpowering and the scones were nice and moist.

The scones were a bit too dry for my taste, but the orange flavor was great.

Orange scones are the best breakfast treat! Fresh, tangy orange flavor is balanced perfectly by a buttery, crumbly texture. I love to serve these with a cup of coffee or tea.
