Serves: 10
Ingredients
- 1 3⁄4 cups flour
- 1⁄2 cup sugar
- 1⁄4 cup cornmeal
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1⁄4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons butter, chilled and cut into small pieces

- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- cooking spray
- 1 teaspoon powdered sugar
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375F°.
- Combine flour and the next 5 ingredients (flour through salt) in a bowl; cut in butter with a pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse meal (a food processor works well here, too).
- Add cranberries, tossing to coat.
- Combine buttermilk, rind, and egg; add to flour mixture, stirring just until moist (dough will be sticky).
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead lightly 5 times with floured hands.
- Pat dough into a 7-inch circle on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray.
- Cut the dough into 10 wedges, cutting into but not completely through dough.
- Bake for 30 minutes or until golden.
- Sift powdered sugar over scones; serve warm.
