Ingredients for Apricot Scones

  • Bisquick Baking Mix
  • Dried Apricot
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar + 1 tablespoon granulated sugar for topping
  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon milk

How to Make Apricot Scones

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups Bisquick baking mix, 1 cup chopped dried apricots, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream, and 1 large egg until a soft dough forms.
  3. Lightly flour a clean work surface with Bisquick baking mix. Turn the dough out onto the surface and gently knead 10-12 times until just combined. Be careful not to overwork the dough.
  4. Pat or roll the dough into an 8-inch circle. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Brush the top of the dough with 1 tablespoon of milk and sprinkle generously with 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar.
  6. Cut the circle into 8 equal wedges using a sharp knife or pizza cutter.
  7. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown and cooked through. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
  8. Let the scones cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving warm. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
