Ingredients

Scones

  • ½ cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon white vinegar
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup cold salted butter
  • 1 ½ teaspoon grated lemon peel
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • cup fresh cranberries

Glaze

  • 1 ½ cups powdered sugar, sifted
  • 2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350˚F
  • In a small bowl, combine milk and vinegar and let stand for at least 5 minutes to “sour”
  • In a medium bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Cut in butter until the mixture looks like oatmeal (or fine crumbs).
  • Add the “sour” milk, lemon peel and lemon juice and stir until fully incorporated. Fold in the cranberries.
  • On a floured surface, knead dough around 6 times and shape into a ball.
  • Press into a lightly sprayed pie pan, and cut into wedges.
  • Bake for around 20 minutes, or until edges are lightly brown. Transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
  • For the glaze, combine icing sugar and lemon juice until smooth. Spread over cooled scones
