Ingredients:
- 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup (67g) granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter, frozen solid
- Zest of 2 large organic oranges
- 3/4 cup (120g) dried cranberries
- 1/2 cup (115g) cold plain Greek yogurt
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions:
- Whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large chilled mixing bowl. Rub the fresh orange zest into the mixture with your fingertips until fragrant and the sugar looks like damp sand. Note: This releases the citrus oils properly.
- Using the coarse side of a box grater, grate the frozen butter directly into the flour mixture. Toss lightly with a fork until every bit of butter is coated in flour.
- Fold the dried cranberries into the dry mix, ensuring they are evenly distributed and not clumped together.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, egg, and vanilla extract until completely smooth.
- Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the liquid mixture all at once.
- Gently fold the ingredients together using a spatula until a shaggy dough forms. Stop the moment there are no more dry flour streaks visible.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and pat into an 8 inch (20 cm) disk. Do not use a rolling pin, as the heat from your hands and the pressure will crush the air pockets.
- Cut the disk into 8 even wedges using a sharp knife or bench scraper. Place them on a parchment lined baking sheet.
- Chill the tray in the refrigerator for 10 minutes. Bake at 200°C (400°F) for 18-22 minutes until the edges are golden brown and the crust feels firm.
- Whisk the powdered sugar and orange juice together. Drizzle over the scones once they have cooled for 5 minutes so the glaze sets instead of melting off.
