Ingredients:

  • 1 Cup Prairie Farms sour cream
  • 1 Cup Fresh Cranberries
  • 4 Cups flour
  • 1 Cup sugar
  • 1 Tsp salt
  • 1 Cup Prairie Farms unsalted butter, cold
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 2 Tsp baking powder

Directions:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a bowl, add sour cream and baking soda. Mix to blend.
  • Whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large mixing bowl. Mix butter in using a pastry blender or two knives in a criss-cross fashion, until butter is broken into small morsels in the flour.
  • Beat egg and mix into sour cream. Add sour cream mixture into dry mixture, working it in.
  • Dough should be a bit dry, and use your hands to combine it. If needed add milk until combined. Aim for having drier dough, and careful not to overmix.
  • When dough is combined, fold in the cranberries by hand.
  • Divide into three equal circles, patting each into a circle that is one inch thick (width ranges from 6-7 inches). Cut each circle into six triangles.
  • Bake on a well butter greased lined baking sheet for 15-20 minutes, until scones are browned nicely on the bottom and slightly on top.
  • Top with a sprinkle of sugar (optional) and serve warm or chilled.
