Orange Cranberry Scones

 

There is nothing I like more then to sit down with a hot cup of tea and a freshly baked scone!  These scones bring me back to my days as a restaurant owner where we made our own orange cranberry scones from scratch.  There is something about these two flavors (orange and cranberry) that taste so amazing!  They are slightly sweet and slightly tart all at the same time.  The cranberries add such a nice texture to the scones.  You could change this recipe up anyway you would like.  How about blueberry scones or chocolate chip scones?  Use your imagination and I am sure you will come up with one of your favorite personalized scones recipe!

I made these today but altered the flour ratios a little  bit. I didn't have enough almond flour and so I used about 2/3rds almond flour and the rest coconut flour. I added egg to compensate (coconut flour needs more eggs). I'm not sure what these normally taste like but mine turned out yummy! Love the orange flavor... So nice to enjoy a decadent scone again :)
