Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups Gold Medal™ self-rising flour
1/2 cup sugar
2 teaspoons grated orange peel
1/3 cup cold butter
1/2 cup buttermilk

1/2 cup chopped pecans

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425°F. In medium bowl, mix flour, 1/2 cup sugar and the orange peel. Cut in butter, using pastry blender or fork, until crumbly. Add buttermilk, orange juice, pecans and vanilla; stir just until dry ingredients are moistened.

These orange pecan scones were a hit at my last brunch party. They're so easy to make, and they have such a wonderful flavor. The orange zest and pecans give them a perfect balance of sweetness and tartness.
