Serves: Serves: 6
Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour

- Preheat oven to 375F.
- Line baking sheet with foil and spray with nonfat cooking spray.
- Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, ginger and orange peel in medium bowl; mix until blended.
- Stir in sour cream (if batter is too thick, add a few drops of skim milk).
- Fold in cranberries.
- Pat dough onto floured surface to 1/2-inch thickness. Cut out circles with 2-inch-round cutter or top of glass dipped in flour.
- Arrange scones on baking sheet and bake 15 to 20 minutes, until golden brown.

Tips:
- Scones with your coffee, why not indulge? Coffee sometimes gets a bad rap, but no studies have conclusively linked coffee to cancer, heart disease or other major diseases.
