Description

Dried cranberries and white chocolate chips combine in these easy scones, perfect for holiday parties or a sweet breakfast.

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup white sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup cold unsalted butter
3/4 cup white chocolate chips
1/2 cup dried cranberries
2/3 cup buttermilk
1 large egg
1 tablespoon heavy cream
1 tablespoon coarse granulated sugar

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
2 Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl. Cut in butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in white chocolate chips and cranberries. Mix in buttermilk and egg until just combined and dough forms a shaggy ball.
3 Roll out slightly and cut into 12 triangles. Place on the prepared baking tray. Brush each scone with a little cream and sprinkle with some coarse sugar.
4 Bake in the preheated oven until barely golden around the edges, about 15 minutes.
