“You can use any dried fruit for these tender scones, but my favorite is a
mix of dried cranberries and golden raisins,” says Della Dunsieth of New
Castle, Pennsylvania. “Don’t overmix or you’ll have a hard, dense scone.”

Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup cold butter
3 tablespoons 2% milk
1 egg, beaten
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1/4 teaspoon coarse sugar

Directions

 In a small bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut in butter until
mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a small bowl, combine milk and 2 tablespoons
beaten egg; add to crumb mixture just until moistened. Stir in cranberries.
Turn onto a floured surface; knead gently 6-8 times. Pat into a 6-in. circle. Cut into
four wedges. Separate wedges and place on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray.
Brush with remaining egg; sprinkle with coarse sugar.
Bake at 425° for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.
