Time 35m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
3 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons grated orange peel
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup chopped dried apricots
1/2 cup white vanilla baking chips
1 1/3 cups whipping cream
1 cup powdered sugar
2 to 3 tablespoons orange juice

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400°F. Lightly grease cookie sheet. In large bowl, mix flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, orange peel and salt until well blended. Stir in apricots and baking chips. Add whipping cream all at once; stir just until dry ingredients are moistened.
  • On lightly floured surface, knead dough 6 or 7 times until smooth. Divide dough in half. Pat each half into 6-inch round; cut each into 6 wedges. Place 2 inches apart on cookie sheet.
  • Bake 10 to 13 minutes or until light golden brown. Cool 5 minutes. Meanwhile, in small bowl, mix powdered sugar and enough orange juice for desired drizzling consistency. Drizzle icing over warm scones. Serve warm.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I used sunflower seeds in my scones instead. They were still delicious!

These scones are the perfect way to use up leftover fruit. I often make them with whatever fruit I have on hand.

I love that these scones can be made ahead of time. I often make a batch on the weekend and then reheat them during the week for breakfast.

I'm not a huge fan of cream cheese glaze, so I omitted it. The scones were still delicious.

I didn't have any orange zest on hand, so I used lemon zest instead. The scones still turned out great!

These scones were a bit dry for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think I'll try adding a little more butter next time.

I'm not usually a fan of scones, but these were amazing! They were light and fluffy, with just the right amount of sweetness. The glaze was the perfect finishing touch.

These scones were a delight! The apricot and orange flavors complemented each other perfectly, and the cream cheese glaze added a touch of richness and sweetness. I'll definitely be making these again.
