Hot-from-the-oven scones flavored with moist tangy-sweet bits of dried cranberries and toasted walnuts accented with a hint of orange make a delicious breakfast or brunch pastry or afternoon snack served with coffee or tea.

Traditionally associated with afternoon English tea, scones are actually very similar to American biscuits but with a sweeter flavor profile and distinctive wedge shape.

4. Pat the dough into an 8-inch round on cookie sheet sprayed lightly with cooking spray.

6. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden. Serve warm.
