I love the bright and buttery flavor of these tender scones. Serve
them with a yummy jam, or try them as a base for strawberry shortcake
Prep: 20 min.
Bake: 15 min.
Preheat oven to 400F. Place flour, 1/4 cup sugar, citrus zest, baking
powder and salt in a food processor; pulse until blended. Add cold
butter; pulse until butter is the size of peas. Transfer to a large
bowl. In a small bowl, whisk egg, orange juice and buttermilk until
blended; stir into crumb mixture just until moistened.
Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead gently 6-8 times. Pat
dough into a 6" circle. Cut into 8 wedges. Place wedges on a
parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush with melted butter; sprinkle with
remaining sugar.
Bake 14 to 18 minutes or until golden brown. Meanwhile, in a small
bowl, mix glaze ingredients until smooth. Remove scones from oven;
immediately brush with glaze. Serve warm.

Review: Really good flavor and a nice burst of sunshine for a cold January day.
Review: I made them last night. My entire family LOVED them. I didn't
use the entire glaze, but I think maybe I should have. They were
lovely, though.
Review: I love the 3 citrus flavors. Daughter wants me to make these
again and add dried cranberries. I think they are fine as is, but I
can see the cranberries in it, also.
Review: I tried these this morning, and my family really enjoyed
them. The citrus flavor in the base and the glaze is really
delicious, and the scones are tender with the perfect amount of crispiness.
