How to make it
Scones:
- In a medium bowl, combine flours, sugar, Truvia, lecithin, baking powder, lemon zest and salt.
- Cut in butter and shortening until mixture resembles fine crumbs.
- Add lemon extract, lemon juice and cream, stirring just until mixed. Gently mix in cranberries.
- Knead gently 6-8 times, just until it comes together.
- Cover and chill 1 hour.
- On a parchment lined baking sheet, pat dough into two circles about ½” thick.
- Using a sharp knife, score each circle into 6 wedges, being careful not to cut all the way through.
- Freeze 1 hour if baking the same day. For later baking, place the tray in the freezer until solid, then wrap scone discs and store in a zip-top bag.
- Position rack in top third of oven; preheat to 375°F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until edges are lightly browned.
Lemon Glaze:
- In a small bowl, mix powdered sugar and lemon extract.
- Add just enough lemon juice until you reach a thick “icing/glaze” consistency.
