    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    2 cups all-purpose flour
    1 tablespoon sugar
    1 tablespoon baking powder
    1 teaspoon finely shredded orange peel
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/4 teaspoon baking soda
    1/2 cup shortening
    1/2 cup dried cranberries, finely snipped
    1 8-ounce container orange yogurt or vanilla yogurt

    Recipe



    In a large bowl, stir together flour, sugar, baking powder, orange peel, salt, and baking soda. Using a pastry blender, cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add cranberries; toss until mixed. Make a well in center of the flour mixture. Add yogurt all at once to the flour mixture. Using a fork, stir just until moistened.

    Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Quickly knead dough by gently folding and pressing dough 10 to 12 strokes or until nearly smooth. Pat or lightly roll dough to 1/2 inch thickness. Cut dough with a floured 2-1/2-inch biscuit cutter, dipping the cutter into flour between cuts. Place biscuits 1 inch apart on an ungreased baking sheet.

    Bake in a 450 degree F oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until golden. Remove from baking sheet. Serve warm. Makes 10 biscuits
