Oat Orange Apricot Scones (yes i´m procrastinating)

Here´s the recipe (then i´ll go copy by hand more silly acondiocamineto fisico notes for the PE test tomorrow!):

1 2/3 Cup flour (White all purpose, or half and half white and whole wheat)
1/4 Cups Sugar (plus 2 TBSP for sprinkling)
1 TBSP Baking Powder
3/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/3 cups oats
1 Stick cold unsalted butter, cut into 1 TBSP pieces
Finey grated zest from 1 large orange
2/3 cup buttermilk (make your own; just take 2/3 cup milk con 2tsps white vinegar and wait 5min!)
1/2 cup finely chopped dried apricots

Preheat the oven to 405 Degrees F

Put the Flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a food processor and mix well. Add the oats and pulse 8x. Add the cut up butter and pulse 10x until the lumps are (at most) size of a pea. Pour the mixture into a bowl. Mix together the buttermilk and orange zest. Add the dried apricots to the dry mixture (or whatever dried fruit you want) and mix well.
Pour in the buttermilk mix to the dry ingredients and mix lightly with a fork until it just comes together. Toss onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently 6 times.

Break the dough in two, and pat each part into a 1inch think round. Cut the rounds into 8 parts and place the scones on a lighlty buttered baking sheet. Brush the tops with left over buttermilk and sprinkle with a bit of sugar.

Bake 15-18 minutes until golden brown. Enjoy hot, or let them cool!


Go try it, they are SERIOUSLY good (and perfect for when you dont´want to sit down because yoru so sunburned on your legs jaja xD).

Loves everyone!
