cranberry scone recipe

Once I had discovered I liked fresh cranberries, I stocked up. Fortunately cranberries keep very well, so I made sure to buy plenty just in case I had a sudden cranberry craving.

Not long after I had bought the cranberries did I find myself wanting to bake something delicious….

I pondered what would go well with the cranberries. After thinking about some of the flavors I used in the candied cranberries, I decided to go with something citrusy.

I went with scones because I recently made some organic pumpkin scones that went over well. There are so many different varieties of scones, and they are so conveniently sized!

I made a huge batch of these scones and sent some home with my boyfriend over Thanksgiving. Everyone seemed to really enjoy the bright flavor from the Meyer lemon zest and fresh cranberry combo.

And you would not believe how long they kept the fresh baked smell.
