Ingredients

• 3 c. White Flour (All Purpose Unbleached Flour)
• 1/3 c. Cane Sugar
• 2 1/2 tsp. Baking powder
• 3/4 tsp. Iodized Salt
• 1/2 tsp. Baking soda
• 3/4 c. Cold butter
• 1 c. Buttermilk
• 1 c. THRIVE cranberries (Craisins)
• 1 tbsp. THRIVE Milk
• 1/4 tsp. Cinnamon

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Grease a large baking sheet. In a large bowl, combine flour, 1/3 cup sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda. Whisk together well
2. Cut butter into small pieces. Cut in butter with a pastry blender (pictured) or with two knives until the mixture resembles course crumbs. Stir in buttermilk, just until combined (do not overmix). Fold in cranberries.
3. On a floured surface, form dough gently into an even mass; then divide in half. Form each half into a circle six inches in diameter. With a floured knife, partially cut each circle into 6 pieces (just cut about 1/2-3/4 of the way into the dough. Transfer both circles to baking sheet.
4. Brush each circle with milk. Combine the 2 Tbsp. sugar and the cinnamon and sprinkle evenly over both circles. Bake for 15-20 minutes.**
5. Notes *To make buttermilk if you don't have any: In a glass measuring cup, pour in 1 Tbsp. apple cider or white wine vinegar. Pour milk up to the 1-cup line. Allow to sit for 5 minutes before using. **This sometimes takes more than 20 minutes for me. I always test the middle with a knife--it should come out with a few small crumbs on it but should not be wet. Overbaking will make a less than satisfactory final product.
