INSTRUCTIONS
Grate orange peel and set aside. Squeeze orange juice. In a small bowl beat
juice, buttermilk, egg and extract until smooth. In a large bowl combine
flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt until well mixed. Cut in butter
with a pastry blender until mixture looks like fine granules. Add sugar,
almonds & orange zest and toss to combine evenly. Using a fork, stir in egg
mixture to form a soft dough. Turn out dough onto a floured board. Knead
several times just until well mixed. Shape 8-10 slightly flatten rounds.
Bake in 375 degree oven for about 20 minutes or until browned. Makes 8-10
scones. Note: These are even more flavorful the next day.
