    Source of Recipe


    Sound Reach Bed & Breakfast

    List of Ingredients




    2 cups all-purpose flour
    2 teaspoons baking powder
    1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    3/4 teaspoon ground cardamom seeds
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    3/4 cup non-fat yogurt
    1 large egg
    1/4 cup freshly grated lemon peel
    8 tablespoons (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut up
    3/4 cup (4 1/2 ounces) finely cut moist prunes

    Recipe



    Heat oven to 375 degrees F. Put flour, baking powder, baking soda, cardamom, and salt into a large bowl; mix well.
    In another bowl, beat yogurt, egg, sugar, and lemon peel until well blended.
    Add butter to the flour mixture and cut in with a pastry blender or rub in with your fingers, until the mixture looks like fine granules. Add prunes and toss to distribute evenly.
    Add yogurt mixture and stir with a spoon until a sticky dough forms. Drop 1/3 cupfuls of dough 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 20 to 25 minutes, until golden brown. Cool, loosely covered with a dishtowel, on a wire rack.
    9 scones.
