Combine in bowl and mix until mixture looks like crumbs:

3 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 cup margarine or butter (I use margarine)
1 teaspoon orange zest

Add the following and mix until dry ingredients are moistened:

1 cup buttermilk
1 cup dried cranberries (Found in bulk food section in grocery store)

Gather dough into ball and knead lightly twelve times on lightly flour surface.
Divide dough into 4 pieces.
Pat each section into a circle 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick.
Cut each circle into 6 pie wedge pieces.
Transfer to baking sheet. I keep each circle together on baking sheet.

Brush each scone with:

2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon milk or cream (I use skim milk)

Bake at 400 F, 15-20 minutes. Oven temperatures vary! Cooking time is based using gas oven and REMA baking sheet.

Yield 24 individual size scones.
