My favorite way to procrastinate, or kill time in general, is either by cooking or reading. I've had plenty of free time lately, and the cold weather had made me especially excited to bake so that I can warm up the house while using the ovens. Today I was looking for something reasonably healthy that also only required the ingredients I had in my house. I've been making scones from Bisquick for years but today I wanted something moister and fluffier. Usually I just throw things in a bowl until it comes close to the right consistency, but today, for you, I measured. (You're welcome!)
- 2/3 cup chopped dried apricots
- 1/2 tablespoon cinnamon
- 2 1/2 tblspn brown sugar
- 2 1/2 cups bisquick
- 1/2 cup vanilla nonfat yogurt
- 1/4 cup water, milk, or soy milk
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees and spray a nonstick cookie sheet.
- Mix wet ingredients separately from dry ingredients, then mix them all together.
- It will be really sticky, so I recommend using a plastic mixing spoon and a silicone spatula to drop approximately 1/3 cup (just eyeball it) evenly spaced apart.
- Bake for about 8 minutes, until they are slightly brown on the bottom and starting to brown on top.
- I recommend these warm with some butter and/or jam.
