Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small cubes and chilled
- 1/2 cup dried cranberries
- 2 teaspoons grated orange zest

Transfer to the baking sheet and bake in the center of the oven for 17 minutes, until lightly browned. Transfer the scones to a rack and let cool slightly. Serve warm or at room temperature.
