Glaze:
  • 1 tbsp yogurt
  • ¼ tsp ground cinnamon
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare glaze by mixing yogurt, cinnamon and sugar in a small bowl; set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add the butter and beat with electric mixer until well blended. Mix in dried cranberries and orange zest. Add yogurt and orange juice and stir until soft dough forms.
