There is nothing I like more than 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 any way 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!

Just like the tea rooms Dana 🙂
Oh, my!!! Every time I get a hot tea at Outpost I see the scones and want one so bad – but never have bought one. Thanks Halle – will have to try this!
@jgard41 These are super delicious 🙂 You will love them!
I am going to make these with blueberries and coconut flakes!! They sound delish…….
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 🙂
@Jenni2 They sound so good…would love your recipe changes so I can try it myself 🙂 Thanks for sharing
