Tangy dried cranberries and luscious orange make these scones hard to keep around for long. They are great for breakfast with a cup of coffee or tea, or anytime you like. So simple to make and they keep for quite a few days in a tight sealed container. If you’re looking to give a delicious gift to a special someone, these would be it.
