Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. 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 the crumb mixture just until moistened.
2. Turn onto a lightly floured surface, knead gently 6-8 times. Pat dough into a 6 inch circle. Cut into 8 wedges. Place wedges on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Brush melted butter, sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon sugar.
3. 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.
