Cranberry Scones

I love to bake.  Unfortunately, I love to eat what I bake, so I don't bake that often.  My mother was a terrific baker.  She understood how comforting food could be.  If someone had a birthday or was recovering from an illness, she'd bake them their favorite pie or cake or cookies.  She spoiled me for delicious home-baked goodies.

I had some non-dairy cream left over from a dinner recipe and I didn't want to waste it.  I remembered that this recipe used cream, so I dug out some frozen cranberries and about an hour later, I had warm cranberry scones.

I don't remember where I found this recipe.  I thought the copy was large enough to read, but it looks sort of small here.  If you can't read it, let me know and I'll send you a larger copy via e-mail.  You can use the recipe as written, but I'm a vegan, so I use non-dairy coconut creamer and Earth Balance instead of butter.  Earth Balance even comes in sticks, which are easier for baking.  Both are delicious  substitutes for cream and butter.  I defy anyone to taste the difference.
