How to Make Orange Chocolate Chip Scones
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon orange zest.
- Cut in 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup milk, 1 large egg, 2 tablespoons orange juice, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir gently with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently 5-6 times. Pat the dough into a 3/4-inch thick circle.
- Use a 2-inch floured biscuit cutter to cut out scones. Place scones onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Sprinkle the tops of the scones generously with coarse sugar.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown.
