Orange Scone Triangles
These Orange Scone Triangles are a pleasant change from the usual cream tea scone. As they have a nice fruity filling no need for butter, cream or jam. I think you’ll find these very nice indeed.

DISCLAIMER
I recommend using the Metric measurements (instead of cups & spoons) for more accuracy and better results.
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 200°C/190ºC Fan/Gas 6. Lightly grease two flat baking sheets.
- Make your filling first by beating all filling Ingredients together until smooth. Leave aside.
- Mix the flour and sugar in a large bowl. Add the butter/margarine and rub through with fingertips until the mixture looks like breadcrumbs.
- Combine the unbeaten egg and milk, add the orange rind and mix to a dough. This will be soft but should not be very sticky.
- Turn onto a lightly floured board and gently knead only a couple of time, as too much kneading will make the scone tough. Divide dough in half. Pat or roll each half into a 23cms/9" round. Spread filling over half of each round.
- Fold each dough round in half over filling, similar to a Cornish pasty Using a sharp knife cut each half round into 6 triangle and place on your prepared tin.
- Brush top with beaten egg and sprinkle with granulated sugar.
- Bake for 10 to 15 minutes until light golden brown. Transfer to a wire tray. Serve warm.

Mr Paul's Hints & Tips
Orange rind can be replaced with lemon rind. Because of the filling these do not need butter or jam!
