Instructions
- 1 Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a heavy baking sheet with parchment paper.
- 2 Whisk flour, white sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a medium bowl; stir in orange zest. Cut in cold butter with 2 knives or a pastry blender until butter is pea-sized. Stir in cranberries and walnuts.
- 3 Beat ½ cup cream and egg together in a small bowl until well mixed; add to flour mixture. Stir with a spoon, or by hand, until just combined and dough comes together.
- 4 Divide dough in half; form into two ¾-inch thick circles. Cut each circle in half; cut each half into 3 triangular-shaped scones. Place scones on the prepared baking sheet; brush with remaining 2 tablespoons heavy cream.
- 5 Bake in the preheated oven until edges begin to brown slightly, 13 to 15 minutes.
- 6 Meanwhile, whisk confectioners' sugar, orange juice, and orange extract together in a small bowl until completely combined. Drizzle glaze over scones; serve warm.
