Kelly House Famous Scones:

1 1/2 cups white flour

1/2 cup whole wheat flour

4 tsp. baking powder

1/4 cup sugar

1/2 tsp. salt

1/2 cup dried apricots coarsely chopped

1/4 cup diced cold margarine

1 egg

2/3 cup milk

Directions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine dry ingredients. Cut in margarine and add apricots. Combine egg and milk. Make well in dry ingredients. Add combined egg and milk mixture. Mix just until the flour is all combined. Spray cookie sheet with oil. Drop dough by spoonfuls onto cookie sheet. Sprinkle with sugar. Cook 15-20 minutes until nicely browned on top.

Tip: Oven must be pre-heated or scones will burn on the bottom before they brown.
