Ingredients

Directions

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.

Sift flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a mixing bowl. Cut in cold butter with 2 knives or a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in yogurt, then cranberries.

Form dough into a ball and place on the prepared baking sheet. Pat down into a 1/4-inch to 1/2-inch thick circle. Sprinkle with sugar and cut into 8 segments.

Bake in the preheated oven until edges are slightly crisp and top is browned, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and redefine the cut marks.

Cook's Notes:

You can use plain yogurt if you prefer instead of vanilla. And if you don't have fresh cranberries, you can use dried cranberries or dried cherries.

This makes a great holiday gift when you make up the dry ingredients and provide the recipe with a bag of cranberries.
