Cranberry Eggnog Drop Scones Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, stir together flour, brown sugar, baking powder, nutmeg and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
• In a separate bowl, toss cranberries with sugar; add to flour mixture along with orange peel and nuts. Mix lightly.
• In another bowl, beat together cream and egg; slowly pour into dry ingredients, mixing with rubber scraper until dough forms. Knead dough 4 or 5 times, being careful not to over handle. Divide dough in half. Turn out onto lightly floured surface. Shape each half into a 6 inch circle. Cut each circle into 6 wedges. Place scones on lightly greased baking sheets.
• Bake in preheated oven until golden brown, about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°. Place the first 5 ingredients in a food processor; pulse to blend. Add butter; pulse until coarse crumbs form. In a bowl, whisk together egg, eggnog and vanilla. Add to food processor; pulse just until blended. Remove to a bowl; stir in cranberries and pecans., Drop mixture by tablespoonfuls 2 in. apart onto greased baking sheets. Bake until golden brown, 10-13 minutes. Cool on a wire rack. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Mix flour, oats, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda together in a large mixing bowl. Cut in butter until mixture looks crumbly. Mix in cranberries, pecans, and orange zest until evenly distributed. Stir in eggnog.
• Turn dough out on a well floured surface and cut into 2 pieces. Keep sprinkling on flour if needed. Form each piece into a disk and gently pat each disk into a round about 6 inches in diameter. Sprinkle each disk with coarse sparkling sugar. Cut each round into 8 wedges using a bench scraper or sharp knife. Cut straight down through the dough so you shear the edges; this helps the scones rise. Don't separate the wedges.
• Transfer dough circles to the prepared baking sheet. Separate the wedges slightly; there should be about 1 inch between the wider edges.
• Bake in the preheated oven until scones are just beginning to brown, about 20 minutes. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Prepare the muffins: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Mist a 12-cup muffin pan with cooking spray. Warm the cranberries and rum in a small saucepan over medium heat, then remove from the heat and let steep 5 minutes. Drain.
• Whisk the flour, baking powder, brown sugar and salt in a medium bowl.
• Whisk the butter, eggnog, eggs and vanilla in another bowl. Gently fold into the flour mixture. (The batter will be lumpy; do not overmix.) Fold in the cranberries. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups.
• Make the topping: Mix the flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, butter, salt and brown sugar in a bowl with your fingertips until it looks like wet sand. Sprinkle generously over the batter.
• Bake until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Cool slightly in the pan, then carefully remove to a rack.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
• Stir the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a mixing bowl until blended. Cut in the butter using a pastry cutter or two knives until coarse crumbs form. Mix in the craisins. Use a fork to stir in the eggnog and make a sticky dough.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface; dip hands in flour and knead the dough about 10 times. Pat the dough out into a disk about 1/2 inch thick. Dip a 2 inch diameter biscuit cutter into some flour, and cut out 8 to 10 rounds. Place rounds about 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheet. Use up remaining dough by patting it into a smaller disk and cutting again.
• Bake in preheated oven until risen and golden brown, about 15 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Mix cranberries and 2 tbsp sugar together, set aside.
• Mix the dry ingredients together, then in separate bowl mix eggnog, butter, eggs, and extract together and add to flour mixture. Do not over mix.
• Fold in cranberries and drop into greased muffin cups.
• Streusel:.
• Mix dry ingredients together and then cut in the butter till well incorporated, then mix in nuts.
• Sprinkle over tops of muffins.
• Bake in preheated oven at 400°F.
• Bake approx 15-20 minutes, just till tops are set.
• Do not over bake or the muffins will dry out.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a baking sheet. Stir, first 5 ingredients, together, in a mixing bowl, until blended. Cut in butter, using a pastry blender/cutter or 2 knives, until coarse crumbs form. Mix in dried cranberries. Use a fork, to stir in the eggnog and make a sticky dough.
• Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; dip hands in flour, and knead the dough about 10 times. Pat the dough out into a disk about 1/2 inch thick. Dip a 2 inch diameter biscuit cutter into some flour, and cut out 8-10 rounds. Place rounds about 2 inches apart, on prepared baking sheet. Use up remaining dough by patting it into a smaller disk and cutting again.
• Bake, until risen and golden brown, about 15 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature. Makes 8 scones. May also cut into wedges, triangles, or cookie cutter shapes. (Larger shapes, may take a few more minutes of cooking.) EGGNOG GLAZE: Mix ingredients together, until smooth. If too thick, add very small amounts of eggnog, until proper drizzling consistency. Drizzle over scones with a spoon or put glaze in a plastic baggie, cut off a corner tip, and drizzle that way.
