Cranberry-Orange Scones


From the Kitchen of:  Mrs. Bergman

Preheat oven to 400°. Grease large baking sheet. In a cup, mix cinnamon, and 1 tablespoon sugar with a fork and set aside. In a medium bowl, mix flour, baking powder, salt and 1/4 cup sugar. With a pastry cutter, cut in margarine or butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in dried cranberries, sour cream, orange juice and orange peel, just until ingredients are blended. Turn dough out and lightly roll to 1/2 inch thickness. Cut scones and sprinkle with cinnamon-sugar mixture. Bake scones 10 to 12 minutes or until golden. Serve warm.
