Ingredients

2-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar, divided
4 teaspoons grated orange peel
2 teaspoons grated lemon peel
1-1/2 teaspoons grated lime peel
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons cold butter, cubed
1 large egg
1/4 cup orange juice
1/4 cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon butter, melted

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 °. Place flour, 1/4 cup sugar, citrus peels, baking powder and salt in a food processor; pulse until blended. Add cold butter; pulse until butter is the size of peas. Transfer to a large bowl. In a small bowl, whisk egg, orange juice and buttermilk until blended; stir into crumb mixture just until moistened.
Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead gently 6-8 times. Pat dough into a 6-in. circle. Cut into eight wedges. Place wedges on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Brush with melted butter; sprinkle with remaining sugar.
Bake 14-18 minutes or until golden brown. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix glaze ingredients until smooth. Remove scones from oven; immediately brush with glaze. Serve warm.
