ORANGE ALMOND SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Mix together liguids with egg and extract, beat well with a fork (a 2 cup measuring cup is perfect for this.).
• Mix together in a separate bowl flour, baking powder and soda, and salt.
• Cut in butter until fine granules form.
• Stir in sugar, almonds and orange peel.
• Add egg mixture and stir with a fork until a soft dough forms, add a little extra milk if needed.
• Turn out onto a board and give 5-6 kneads.
• Divide dough in half and pat into circles on an ungreased cookie sheet; cut each circle into 6-8 wedges, depending what size scone you want.
• For crisper scones seperate wedges on the sheet.
• Bake about 25 minutes or until medium brown.
