Whole Wheat Apple Scones
- 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (about 5 ounces)
- 1 cup whole wheat flour (about 4 3/4 ounces)
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Dash of ground nutmeg
- 1/4 cup chilled butter, cut into small pieces
- 1 cup shredded peeled Granny Smith apple (about 1/2 pound)
- 1/2 cup 1% low-fat milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Cooking spray
- 2 tablespoons 1% low-fat milk
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- Preheat oven to 425u0b0.
- Lightly spoon flours into dry measuring cups and tablespoons; level with a knife. Combine flours, 1/4 cup sugar, and next 5 ingredients (through nutmeg) in a large bowl; stir with a whisk. Cut in butter with a pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add apple, 1/2 cup milk, and vanilla extract, stirring just until moist (dough will be sticky).
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead lightly 4 times with floured hands. Divide dough in half; pat each portion into a 6-inch circle on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Cut each circle into 5 wedges, cutting into but not through, dough. Brush tops of wedges with 2 tablespoons milk, and sprinkle evenly with 2 teaspoons sugar. Bake at 425u0b0 for 15 minutes or until golden. Serve warm.
