3/4 cup plain yogurt (or vanilla or other flavored yogurt-orange would be good!)

2 3/4 cups flour
-
4 teaspoons baking powder
-
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
-
1/2 teaspoon salt
-
1/2 cup margarine
-
1 cup cranberries, halved (you can use craisins, do not chop them but real cranberries give more bite)

1 orange, rind of, grated
-
2 tablespoons melted butter (to garnish)

2 tablespoons powdered sugar (to garnish)

1 egg
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375*F.
- Combine yogurt and egg in a small bowl. Set aside.
- In large bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Cut in margarine until it looks like small peas.
- Stir in cranberries (or craisins), sugar and orange rind.
- Add yogurt/egg mix and stir to a soft dough. (it may seem a bit dry, but be careful about adding extra yogurt as it goes wet very easily).
- Roll or pat on floured surface to 3/4 inch thick, and then cut in circles, place on parchment paper on ungreased cookie sheet and bake 15-20 minutes.
- While still warm, brush tops with melted butter and dust with powdered sugar. Serve them with butter and jams on the side. Enjoy!
