Cranberry Orange Scones

November 27, 2011 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 13 Comments

Good morning,

Nothing like waking up on a Sunday morning to the smell of fresh scones baking in the oven.  I was at Starbucks yesterday, I know your surprised, but they were giving out samples and one of the samples was there Cranberry Orange Scones.  Oh man they were good!  I knew I couldn’t have one at 400 some calories a scone, so I woke up fresh and early so I can make my own.

I made one batch, and I didn’t know what I did wrong, there were a pure sticky mess, so I threw them out and started over.  I reconfigured  my recipe and tried again and yes my friends they turned out better then I thought!


I made them mini, so I can have more then one, plus there pretty low calorie for a scone.  Honestly,  I never made mini scones, just big ones, and these were pretty easy to make and not to many ingredients.

Since there is only 1/4 cup of sugar I decided to make an orange glaze to go over the top which was 1/4 cup of powdered sugar and a few squirts of fresh orange juice.  The flavor was just perfect!

These would make a wonderful breakfast for Christmas morning, yes I’m thinking Christmas.

Cranberry Orange Scones – Adapted from Everyday Health

2 cups all-purpose flour

2 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 cup sugar

3 1/2 tablespoon butter,cut into small pieces

1/4 cup cranberries, dried

2 teaspoon orange peel, grated

1/4 cup non fat milk

1/4 Cup fresh orange juice

1 large egg, lightly beaten

For Glaze

1/4 cup powdered sugar

Squirt of fresh orange juice

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375°.

Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and sugar in a bowl. Cut in butter with pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse meal (I used my hands). Stir in cranberries and rind. Add milk, orange juice and egg stirring just until moist.

Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead 15 times or until smooth.

Form into an 8 x8x square. Cut 4 even rows into the dough. Cut into triangles.  I got 6 scones per row. (sorry no picture, my hands were to sticky to pull out my camera)

Carefully Transfer dough to a baking sheet coated with cooking spray or lined with parchment paper

Bake at 375° for 10-12 minutes or until golden.  Let them slightly cool for about 5 minutes.  Meanwhile make your glaze.

In a small bowl add your powdered sugar and orange juice (I juiced a 1/4 of an orange) mix until a consistency you like.  Add more sugar if to thin, add more juice if to thick.  Drizzle over the top of scones.

Eat and Enjoy!

Calories per scone:  73,  Fat:  1.8,  Sodium:  70,  Potassium:  19,  Carbs:  12.7,  Fiber:  .4,  Sugar:  4.6,  Protein:  4.2

I feel like I play Jenga with my food, layering them as high as I can. lol

Time to wrap Christmas presents and maybe put up my little tree.  Have a wonderful day!!

      Thanks! I never had orange or cranberries together until I tried the Starbucks Scone, it was a match made in heaven. 🙂

    I’m glad your second batch turned out so nice. I’m also glad that your scone recipe doesn’t use excessive amounts of sugar!! Great job!

      Hi Sharon,

      On just about all my recipes, I really try to scale back on sugar, who needs so much with all the other flavors?

    Just made this (but had to replace about a quarter cup of honey roasted nuts with regular dry roasted unsalted peanuts because I didn’t have enough!) and it was DELICIOUS! Thank you for the recipe!

Hey, hey, hey happy Tuesday! The days are getting Hey, hey, hey happy Tuesday! The days are getting longer and Spring will be here before we know it. #sponsored I can’t wait! Spring is my favorite season!
🌸
I’m sharing with you my new Yuri 4 piece patio set that I got from RST Brands. I love the clean lines and it’s made with certified eucalyptus wood. Plus it is so comfortable to sit on.
🌸
The beautiful light blue cushions are covered in a durable olefin fabric that is weather resistant. Plus the cushions have zippers, so you can wash the cushion covers. That’s a big plus, considering Sampson loves to sit on furniture.
🌸
I can’t wait to decorate my Yuri 4 piece seating set with throws, pillows and of course plants. When the weather warms up, I’ll take you along with me when I decorate.
🌸
Are you looking forward to Spring?

Happy Monday! As usual the weekend flew by, but I’m happy that I got some things done. I’m really trying to do some purge and organize. Slowly moving at it, one day at a time.
💕
I’m sharing with you my Valentines Day tiered tray. If you notice, I finally got a new tiered tray.  Woohoo, the tiered tray is from @paperadpallet. I’m so happy to ditch my old white one. It was so crooked that I had to put a towel under to make it straight. I now finally have a straight tiered tray.
💕
I’ve been good and I still haven’t gone shopping, but after putting this tray together, I realize I don’t own any wooden hearts. I really would like some white and pink ones. I could do a diy, I don’t think that’s considered buying home decor?
💕
How was your weekend?

Hello Thursday! Hope your week is going well. So f Hello Thursday! Hope your week is going well. So far so good over here. I’ve been doing well not shopping. I had to have Target deliver groceries yesterday because I was afraid to go in that store. I have no control. 23 more days to go for my 30 day no buying home decor challenge.
🌿
I’m slowly working on refreshing my home after Christmas. I worked on this vignette in my living room. It’s really hard shopping my home. I grabbed stuff in just about every room to make this vignette.
🌿
I’m sticking with the whites and greens and added the blue vase to go with my pillow in the background. I added another faux fern, I didn’t realize how many I have floating around.
🌿
The pot the fern is in was a pot that my spider plant was in that I got from Trader Joe’s. I told you I really shopped around my home. But it’s kind of fun using things I already have.
🌿
Do you like shopping your own home?

Hello Wednesday! Half way through the first week b Hello Wednesday! Half way through the first week back, we can do it. I need to pump myself up. 😂 All in all it’s not to bad of a work week.
🌿
Last week I worked on changing my console table around. I wanted to keep it light and simple and of course add my greenery.
🌿
I just love adding pops of greenery, real or faux everywhere. Plants truly make me happy. The faux fern you see here is from Target. It’s part of the Studio McGee collection. I can’t get over how real it looks.
🌿
For ferns, I always have to get faux. I don’t have very good luck with real ones. It’s just to dry here. I have to water them everyday and if you miss a day, they die. So faux it will be.
🌿
What’s your favorite plant?

Hello and happy Tuesday! Not too much going on ove Hello and happy Tuesday! Not too much going on over here. Just trying to get back into the swing of things. I was so tired after work yesterday.
🌸
I’m slowly decorating my home for this season, though winter is hard for me. After Christmas, I love pastels and flowers. I think the winter season is a little more difficult to decorate because we don’t get snow. It’s hard to have flocked trees and sunshine.
🌸
I’m sharing with you my centerpiece on my dining room table. I just love it so much!  It’s kind of cozy and warm. Plus it has flowers! I’m still working on decorating the rest of the dining room. I hope to complete it by the weekend so I can share it with you.
🌸
How’s the weather where you live?

Monday again? Ugh! Back to work today. I have enjo Monday again? Ugh! Back to work today. I have enjoyed my two weeks off and boy it is going to be hard getting back in the swing of things. At least I can roll out of my bed and go straight to my computer.
💕
Notice something different in my bedroom? I have a new sign above my bed. It took two years and a lot of begging to get my husband to hang something above my bed. It did cost me a trip to Olive Garden. lol
💕
My new farmhouse sign is from @krumpetshomedecor. I love just it, and thought it was perfect for the bedroom. I find the words so beautiful. Swipe to see a close up.
💕
The sign is slightly white wash and the word “love” is raised lettering. Plus the sign is two sided. I’ll show you the other side in stories today.
💕
Today Krumpets Home Decor is launching there new Valentines decor and let me tell you it is gorgeous!! I saw some fun pieces for a tiered tray and more signs. So much to choose from.
💕

Happy Sunday! Not to much going on here. I finally Happy Sunday! Not to much going on here. I finally packed up my Christmas and slowly redecorating my house for winter/spring.
🌿
For some reason, when Christmas is over I feel the need to start to decorate for Spring. I just love the light, bright feeling.
🌿
My first post of the New Year has to be flowers. I’m sharing this pretty bouquet that I bought from Trader Joe’s.
🌿
Trader Joe’s has tulips already, which means peonies will be soon to follow. I can’t wait for flower season to come full bloom.

Are you going to be decorating for Valentine’s Day?

Happy New Years Eve! I can’t believe it’s the Happy New Years Eve! I can’t believe it’s the last day of the year and what a year it’s been. Though I’ve had some wonderful blessings this year.
🥂
I’m sharing with you my top 9 photos of 2020. Thank you so much for all your wonderful comments, likes and saves. I’ve had so much fun on IG this year. I’ve made so many new friends, I’ve been inspired by you and I feel like I have grown so much just by being here with you.
🥂
You don’t even know how much I appreciate each and everyone of you. You are truly inspiring.  I am looking so forward to seeing what is in store in 2021.
🥂
If you followed my stories yesterday, I am doing a 30 day challenge starting on January 1st. The challenge is not being able to buy any home decor. So if you are joining me, shop today. It’s the last day to shop.
🥂
I plan on shopping my home, and being creative with what I have. When lockdown started, I saved so much money, not being able to leave my home. I was so proud of myself. Plus, I can save some money for spring and Easter decor.
🥂
Let me know if you are joining me? I need a support system. Target did me in this week, and I must stay away.  Once I get the shopping bug, I can’t stop.
🥂
I’m taking the next couple of days off from IG to get my house organized. I will be on stories to show my progress. Happy New Years! Cheers to a wonderful 2021.

I’m sharing with you my last room that has Christmas still left in it. I’ll probably change it up later this week or next. I’m really trying to focus on my kitchen and living room.
