Cranberry Orange Scones with Orange Nutmeg Glaze
These Cranberry Orange Scones with Orange Nutmeg Glaze are festive with warm and bright flavors of the winter season.
I’m just a little bit infatuated with really good scones. You know the kind. The ones with delightfully crackly edges that give way to moist, flavorful interiors. I have a number of scones recipes to offer you, right here in the archives:
- Dark Cherry Scones with Chocolate-Chili Glaze
- Lemon Rhubarb Scones with Vanilla Bean Glaze
- Whole Wheat Raspberry Drop Scones
- Coconut Scones with Dark Chocolate Chunks
- Orange and Dark Chocolate Scones with Orange Glaze
- Chocolate Chip Scones with Peanut Butter Glaze
- Gingerbread and Cranberry Scones
- Wild Blueberry Scones
And my latest, these Cranberry Orange Scones with Orange Nutmeg Glaze, are especially wonderful for baking up during this winter season. They’re filled with bright orange zest and sweet, chewy dried cranberries. And there’s a most delicious orange nutmeg glaze. I drizzled the glaze in thin lines across these scones, but if you like even more sweetness, go ahead and slather them silly.

I really should try making some cream scones, have only used buttermilk. Thanks, Liz!
Love homemade scones as long as they aren’t dryer than dust. Do you know if I could use as all-purpose flour in this recipe?? I hate to buy whole wheat for a half cup. Let
Yes, go ahead and use all-purpose. Thanks, Wendy!
I’m right there with you on the scone obsession. I can’t get enough. There’s just something so perfect about a good scone and a cup of coffee to start the day. Beautifully done (loving the glaze!)
Thanks, Brian!
