Strawberry Pecan Scones


My co-worker's husband made these for us one day. i am not usually a big scone fan but these were amazing! just the right amount of sweetness and not too hard! ps- if you use a soy yogurt and soy margarine this is dairy free and does not compromise the flavor one bit!

Steps


Preheat oven to 400 , use center rack.
Combine first 5 ingredients in a mixing bowl and cut in margarine with a pastry blender till mixture looks like coarse meal.
Add yogurt to dry ingredients , stirring till ingredients are just moistened.
Turn dough out onto a floured surface.
With floured hands , knead 4-5 times.
Pat dough into an 8 inch circle on a baking sheet covered with cooking spray.
Cut dough into 12 wedges , cutting to but not through bottom of dough.
Make a small slit in the center of each wedge.
Place 1 tsp of strawberry spread on top of each slit and sprinkle with pecans.
Bake at 400 for 13-20 minutes or until golden.
Serve warm.
