Sabbath Morning Scones!

Sabbath morning usually consists of scones, a smoothie and fruit around here - so that I have just 3 or 4 minutes to mix and 13-15 minutes in the oven. Easy and delicious and portable for the pokey ones. These are great ones inspired by Noah's donation of orange slices that he got on a recent trip. He was so excited about how they turned out!

Orange Scones

3 cups whole wheat flour
¾ cup sugar
3 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon cinnamon
8-10 orange slice chewy candies
½ cup walnuts, chopped, optional
½ cup oil
¾ cup orange juice

1. Preheat oven to 400.
2. Mix all the dry ingredients and then chop orange slices into this powdery mixture (so they don't stick together!). Mix all ingredients well. You may need to add a bit of orange juice to have a "formable" dough.
3. Shape into one large round, about 8" diameter and, using an oiled knife, cut into wedges, separating slightly. OR shape into individual biscuit-sized rounds and place on greased cookie sheet. Bake until golden brown, about 20-25 minutes for the wedges or 14 minutes for the individual biscuits.
