Orange Scones

I used a few scone recipes I found around the internet to create these little beauties. I did not put a glaze on them since they were nice and tasty plain, but there were many orange glaze recipes around that would work well on them.

Mix:
3 cups flour
1/3 cup sugar
2 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt

Cut in:
3/4 cup butter

Mix in:
1/2 cup orange juice
1/2 cup buttermilk
zest of one orange

Roll out on floured surface into a large circle.
Cut into 10 wedges.
Brush with milk.
Bake 375* for about 9 minutes.

*I've been baking everything with convection lately, so you may need to increase the time if you bake with in conventional oven.
