Papaya and Lime Scones
Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup canola oil
1 cup low fat milk
1 large egg
Finely grated zest from 2 small limes
1/2 cup dried papaya, coarsely chopped
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 425oF. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar,
baking powder, and salt. Stir in the canola oil with a fork until pea size
crumbs form.
In a small bowl combine the milk, egg, lime zest, and papaya. Add to the flour
mixture and stir with fork until blended. Dough will be sticky. Turn out dough
on generously floured board. Lightly form two balls and flatten into disks about
5 inches in diameter. Don't over work the dough. Place disks on ungreased cookie
sheet and cut into desired number of wedges. Brush lightly with milk and bake
for about 20 minutes.
