1/2 tsp baking soda
3/4 cup butter or margarine
1 cup cranberries, coarsely chopped
2 tsp grated orange peel

1/2 cup buttermilk or sour milk
Preheat oven to 400F.
In mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder and baking soda; cut in butter with
pastry blended or two knives. Stir in cranberries, orange peel and sugar; stir
in buttermilk just until ingredients are moistened.
