Orange Yogurt Scones
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 20 min. Bake: 15 min.
YIELD: 8 servings.
"My mother handed down this recipe to me when I moved out of the house," recalls Hollye Chapman of Corvallis, Oregon. "It produces a very light scone that tastes great with orange marmalade, lemon curd or most kinds of jam. Use any flavor fruit yogurt if you don't have orange," she adds.
