Strawberry Yogurt Scones

Scones are similar to biscuits, but these have a wet, sticky dough. Serve fresh from the oven with hot tea.

Yield: 12 scones (serving size: 1 scone)

Ingredients

• 1 1/2  cups  all-purpose flour
• 2/3  cup  whole wheat flour
• 1/2  cup  sugar
• 2  teaspoons  baking powder
• 1/2  teaspoon  baking soda
• 1/4  teaspoon  salt
• 3/4  cup  diced strawberries
• 2/3  cup  strawberry fat-free yogurt
• 3  tablespoons  butter, melted
• 1/2  teaspoon  grated orange rind
• 1  large egg white, lightly beaten
• Cooking spray
• 2  teaspoons  sugar

Preparation

Preheat oven to 400°.

Lightly spoon flours into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flours, 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Combine strawberries, yogurt, butter, rind, and egg white; add to flour mixture, stirring just until moist.

Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; knead lightly 4 times with floured hands. Pat into an 8-inch circle on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Cut into 12 wedges, cutting into but not through dough; sprinkle with 2 teaspoons sugar. Bake at 400° for 20 minutes or until lightly browned.
