EASY CRANBERRY ORANGE PECAN SCONES



Easy Cranberry Orange Pecan Scones image

Yet another new scone recipe that I've come up with. We like these scones because they're hearty, healthy, tasty, and hold you to lunch! I hope you enjoy these as much as we do. These scones are not overly sweet, so if you like your scones sweet, you may wish to add more brown sugar.
