For the second of our Star Wars rewatches, I made cranberry scones—great with a little blackberry jam.
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup dried cranberries
- 9 tablespoons cold butter
- 2 cups flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- pinch of salt
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 cup milk
- splash of vanilla
Soak cranberries in juice or water for an hour to plump
Cut the dry ingredients into the butter until it forms fine crumbs
Add the egg and wet ingredients and mix just to combine
Turn out on a floured surface and knead briefly
Shape into a circle 1 inch thick and cut into wedges
Bake at 450 F / 230 C for 10 minutes

Geeks eat, too! Second Breakfast is an occasional feature in which we talk about food with geeky connections and maybe make some of our own. Yum!
