These yummy treats are sort of a cross between a muffin and a scone - in fact, the blog that I adapted this recipe from calls them "scuffins". They are a little more healthy than your typical scone or muffin, too.
2 C. AP flour
1/4 C. granulated sugar
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1 C. low-fat yogurt (I used Greek yogurt)
1 egg, beaten
1/4 C. margarine, melted
1 Tbsp. lemon juice
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/2 cup dried fruit (I used blueberry flavored craisins)
1/2 cup chopped nuts (I used walnuts)
Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Stir in the fruit and nuts. In a separate bowl, mix the yogurt, egg, margarine, lemon juice, and vanilla. Mix the liquid ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until combined.
Drop the dough by tablespoonfuls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake at 400 for 12 minutes, or until lightly browned. Allow to stand for about 5 minutes before removing from the baking sheet.
Makes about 24 scones.
