Directions
Orange-Currant Scones, This Scottish quickbread is spiced with currants and orange essence Do not overwork this dough , These are very good scones I like there size so many scones are huge but these are just perfect The orange peel adds a very nice zest I really like that they are not too sweet I didn’t have currants so used raisins but they are quite good maybe just slightly different a little more sweet Over all a very good tea time treat
