FOOD MAGAZINE'S CRANBERRY SCONES


FOOD November 2005, p. 22

I estimated by eye to suit an 8" cake pan diameter. I didn't have buttermilk, so I thickened 1% cow's milk with a tablespoon of lemon juice at the bottom of the measuring cup. I was sad to omit it, but I didn't have the orange zest either. It's hot and humid today, but I did add almost a half a cup more flour to make the dough manageable, and keep it from sticking to the counter or knife on cutting into 8. I only used 1/4 cup of cranberries.

I flattened them after cutting to attempt to even the cooking. I used my handy dandy silpat, which I love to bake it on.


18 minutes at 400 degrees was a little too long.



The final product. Warm, buttery, slightly overcooked. Next time: zest of orange, currants and  16 minutes to try.
