To make these Cranberry Orange Biscuits, you will need the following ingredients per serving:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
- 1/4 cup dried cranberries
- 1/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
- 1/2 teaspoon orange zest
- 1/4 cup buttermilk
To start, preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add the cold butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Next, add the dried cranberries, orange juice, orange zest, and buttermilk to the bowl and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the dough.
Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown on top.
Once the biscuits are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving. These Cranberry Orange Biscuits are best served warm with a pat of butter or a drizzle of honey.
