Orange Raisin Scones/Biscuits (Dairy ,Egg, Gluten/Grain and Refined Sugar Free)

By Irene Shaver @hhwife
I was looking for another grain free breakfast idea and realized, I hadn't made my regular biscuit recipe in awhile.  I thought I would make a different flavour and decided orange was the way to go.  I definitely like this combination.  They were nice and fresh tasting and went well with my morning tea.  These biscuits are great warm or cold the next day.
