Triple-Fruit Scones

Triple-Fruit Scones


1. Lightly spoon flour, wheat germ and bran into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flour, 1/3 cup sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; cut in margarine with a pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse meal(I usually do this with my fingers).

2. Stir in apricots and cranberries.

3. Combine buttermilk, orange rind, egg, and egg white; add to flour mixture, stirring just until moist.

4. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; knead lightly 4 times with floured hands. Roll dough into a 12 x 6-inch rectangle.

5. Cut dough into 8 (3-inch) squares using a dull knife or a dough scraper.

6. Cut each square into 2 triangles; place on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray.

7. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar; bake at 400° for 12 minutes or until golden. Serve warm. Enjoy!
