Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
-
Cut the cold butter into small cubes and add it to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
-
Stir in the dried cranberries and chopped pistachios.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, vanilla extract, and heavy cream.
-
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
-
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead it a few times to bring it together.
-
Pat the dough into a 1-inch thick circle and cut it into 8 wedges.
-
Place the scones onto the prepared baking sheet and brush the tops with a little heavy cream.
-
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown.
-
Remove from the oven and let the scones cool for 10 minutes before serving.
