Cranberry Maple Nut Scones

Submitted by Kree

"This is posted in response to a request. It's a simple scone recipe using Bisquick mix! I've also made these using reduced fat Bisquick, soy milk, and Egg Beaters and they still tasted terrific!"

• Ingredients: 10
• Serves: 8

ingredients

6. Pat dough into 8-inch circle on cookie sheet (if dough is sticky, dip fingers in Bisquick).

These scones are so good and very easy to make. I made this following Kree's directions exactly but had to bake an extra 10 minutes to get the scones golden brown (was probably my oven's fault). Thanks Kree, my husband and I really enjoyed these for our morning coffee break.

Delicious -- and so easy! I baked them on a stoneware pizza sheet, and it took about 12 minutes.

Very good and easy! I was looking to use up my dried cranberries and this was perfect! I used Hungry Jack Buttermilk mix instead of Bisquick, and they turned out just as good and moist. Great flavor too. Will definitely enjoy these with my coffee in the morning.

These were really good. I loved the maple flavor with the cranberries. I had never thought of that mixture before. It was just the perfect balance.

These were good! I also had to bake extra time, but for me only 5 minutes. Guess it just depends on the oven. I used pecans instead of walnuts because that's what I had. I liked these because they weren't too sweet, they were great!
