List of Ingredients
2 cups all purpose flour
1/4 tsp salt
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
2/3 cup toasted wheat germ
1/3 cup margarine
1-1/4 cups finely chopped apple
1/2 cup skim milk
1/4 cup honey
Topping---
1 tbsp toasted wheat germ
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tbsp sugar
Recipe
Preheat oven 400F. Lightly spray a large cookie heet with non-stick cooking spray. Handle the dough gently; overmixing the scones can make them tough.
Combine flour, wheat germ, baking powder, spices, baking soda & optional salt. Cut in the margarine until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add combined apple, milk, and honey, mixing until dry ingredients are moistened.
Turn dough out onto lightly floured surface; knead gently 5-6 times. Pat dough into a 9-inch circle. Mix together topping ingredients (1 tbsp wheat germ, 1/4 tsp cinnamon, and 1 tbsp sugar). Sprinkle over dough. Cut dough into 10 wedges. Place 1/2-inch apart on prepared cookie sheet.
Bake 16-18 minutes, or until golden brown.
