Healthy Cranberry Scones



Cranberry Scones
2 c whole wheat pastry flour
1 c pecans, chopped
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 and 1/4 c low-fat GREEK vanilla yogurt (it has 14 grams protein!)
2 Tbsp canola oil
1 tsp freshly grated orange zest
2/3 c dried sweetened cranberries or Craisins

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Lightly coat a 9" round baking pan with cooking spray.

2. Whisk together the flour, pecans, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.

3. Whisk together the Greek yogurt, oil, and orange zest in a small bowl.

4. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and add the yogurt mixture and cranberries. Stir just until blended.

5. Press into the prepared pan. Score the dough with a knife to form 8 triangles. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until lightly browned and a wooden toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean
