This is a great breakfast or snack. My mother handed down this recipe to me when I moved out of the house, recalls Hollye Chapman of Corvallis, Oregon. It produces a very light scone that tastes great with orange marmalade, lemon curd or most kinds of jam. Use any flavor fruit yogurt if you don't have orange, she adds Recipe Source: TOH
Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup sugar, plus
2 teaspoons sugar, divided
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons cold butter or 3 tablespoons margarine
1 (6 ounce) carton orange flavored yogurt
1/4 cup orange juice
2 teaspoons grated orange peel
Directions:
1. In a bowl, combine the flour, 1/3 cup sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt; cut in butter until crumbly. In another bowl, whisk the yogurt, orange juice and peel; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Turn onto a floured surface; knead 10 times.
2. Transfer dough to a greased baking sheet. Pat into an 8-in. circle. Cut into eight wedges, but do not separate. Sprinkle with remaining sugar. Bake at 400° for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.
