Brown Flour Cranberry Scones

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. 2

   In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, baking powder, and salt.

3. 3

   Cut the unsalted butter into small cubes and add it to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

4. 4

   Stir in the brown sugar and dried cranberries.

5. 5

   Gradually add the milk, mixing until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overmix.

6. 6

   Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead it a few times to bring it together.

7. 7

   Pat the dough into a circle about 1 inch thick. Cut the circle into 8 wedges.

8. 8

   Place the wedges on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each one.

9. 9

   Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown.

10. 10

    Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack before serving.
