Number Of Ingredients 15

2 1/4 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 cup firm margarine
1 cup mashed cooked sweet potato
1/2 cup shredded carrot
1/4 cup vanilla fat-free yogurt

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400°F. Mix flour, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, nutmeg, salt and cloves in medium bowl. Cut in margarine, using fork or pastry blender, until mixture looks like fine crumbs. Stir in sweet potato, carrot, yogurt and vanilla just until dough leaves side of bowl.

Cut with 2 1/2-inch cookie cutter dipped into flour, or cut into diamonds with knife. Place about 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Brush with egg white; sprinkle with granulated sugar.

I'm not a big fan of sweet potato, but I actually really enjoyed these scones! The sweet potato flavor was very subtle, and the scones were so moist and fluffy.

These scones were a bit dry, but they still had a good flavor. I think I might try adding a little bit of butter or oil to the dough next time.
