Cranberry Scones!

3 c. flour
2 1/2 t. baking powder
1/2 t. baking soda
1/2 t. ground ginger
3/4 t. salt
1/4 c. sugar
3/4 c. cold butter, cut into cubes
1 egg, beaten
3/4 c. almond milk
1 c. cranberries
1 t. lemon zest

In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, ginger, salt, and sugar.  Cut in butter using your fingers until it resembles a coarse meal and the butter is it small flakes.  In another bowl, combine the beaten egg and milk.  Add to the flour mixture and stir to make a dough.  Fold in the cranberries and zest.  Knead the dough 10 times on a floured board.  Form dough into triangular scone shapes and place on an ungreased baking sheet.  Bake on a rack in the upper third of the oven at 400 degrees for 15-18 minutes or until golden on top.  Makes about 17 small scones.
