Cranberry + orange: a dynamic duo! This duo has made scrumptious muffins, crisp, and cranberry sauce, and now a brand new cranberry + orange favourite joins the Minimalist Baker household: scones!
These EASY, 1-bowl scones are fluffy, citrusy, flippantly sweetened, generously studded with recent cranberries, and undetectably vegan + gluten-free. Excellent for vacation breakfasts, brunches, and past! Allow us to present you the way it’s performed!
These fluffy, tender, gluten-free scones get their excellent texture from a mixture of almond flour, oat flour, and potato starch. We found this magical mixture (after many rounds of testing) when creating our Gluten-Free Blueberry Scones.
These scones are completely flaky because of slicing chilly (vegan) butter into the dry substances.
Orange juice + zest ensures shiny, citrusy taste all through. Baking powder helps them rise, salt provides taste, and flaxseed meal prevents them from being too crumbly.
The ultimate ingredient is cranberries! Recent (or frozen) cranberries are stuffed with tartness and taste that’s completely balanced by the candy, citrusy dough.
We predict you’re going to LOVE these cranberry orange scones! They’re:
Fluffy
Zesty
Tart
Flippantly candy
Simple to make
& Sort of excellent!
Get pleasure from with coffee or tea on a lazy weekend morning, for vacation brunch when serving a crowd, and past! Additionally they make an important afternoon snack or fall dessert and could be frozen unbaked to rapidly bake up when scone cravings come up.

Use a pastry cutter, fork, or clear arms to chop the butter into the flour combination till it resembles moist sand with some pea-sized items of butter remaining.

Add the orange juice a bit of at a time whereas stirring with a wood spoon. The dough shouldn’t be crumbly, and it also needs to not follow your fingers. If too dry, maintain mixing or add 1 tsp extra orange juice at a time (as much as 1 Tbsp extra). Then add your cranberries and gently stir to distribute.

*The mix of almond flour, oat flour, and potato starch offers these scones a traditional scone taste and fluffiness. You would attempt changing the oat flour + potato starch with barely much less of a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend, however odds are they received’t be fairly as fluffy!
