Time 40m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 3/4 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup firm butter or margarine
1/3 cup finely chopped dried apricots
1/3 cup white vanilla baking chips
1 egg

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
  • Use Cold Butter: Cold butter is essential for creating flaky scones. If your butter is too warm, it will melt and make your scones dense.
  • Don't Overwork the Dough: Overworking the dough will make your scones tough. Mix the ingredients just until they come together.
  • Chill the Dough: Chilling the dough before baking helps to develop the flavor and makes it easier to handle.
  • Bake the Scones Until Golden Brown: The scones are done baking when they are golden brown on top. If you insert a toothpick into the center of a scone and it comes out clean, they are done.
  • Let the Scones Cool: Let the scones cool slightly before serving. This will help them to hold their shape.

Conclusion:

Apricot and white chocolate scones are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a snack. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect scones every time.
