Apricot-Citrus Scones
Ingredients:
wheat flour, white, all-purpose, unenriched
sugars, granulated
leavening agents, baking powder, double-acting, sodium aluminum sulfate
salt, table
leavening agents, baking soda
butter, without salt
orange juice, raw
apricots, dried, sulfured, uncooked
nuts, pecans
milk, buttermilk, fluid, cultured, lowfat
cream, fluid, heavy whipping
sugars, granulated
Directions:
Preheat oven to 425F.
Butter a baking sheet.
In large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and baking soda.
Using your fingertips or a pastry blender, blend the butter into the dry ingredients, until the mixture becomes crumbly.
Add the orange zest, apricots and pecans and toss to combine.
Stir in the buttermilk until the dough is rough and shaggy.
Gather the dough together and place on a liberally floured work surface.
Gently knead about 10 times.
Divide the dough in half and pat each piece into a circle about 7 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch thick.
Glaze each by brushing with cream and sprinkling on sugar.
Cut each round into eight pie-shaped wedges.
Place the scones, barely touching, on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake 15-18 minutes, until puffy and golden.
