  1. Preheat oven to 375°. Lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.
  2. Whisk together Baking & Pancake Mix, sugar, and baking powder. Cut butter into dry ingredients, using two knives, pastry blender, or electric stand mixer with paddle attachment, until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add milk, egg, cranberries, and orange zest, if using, and mix until just combined. Dough will be thick.

  4. To make drop scones: Scoop or drop about ¼ cup of dough per scone onto baking sheet and pat into balls.
  5. To bake: Bake for 14 to 17 minutes until just starting to brown on the edges.
  6. Variation: Replace cranberries with dried currants.
