Starbucks' Low-Fat Date Scones

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup whole-wheat flour
• 1/4 cup unprocessed wheat bran
• 1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 3 tablespoons chilled stick margarine, cut into small pieces
• 2/3 cup chopped pitted dates
• 2/3 cup vanilla low-fat yogurt
• 2 egg whites, lightly beaten
• Vegetable cooking spray

Preparation

1. Combine first 8 ingredients in a bowl; cut in margarine with a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add dates; toss well. Add yogurt and egg whites, stirring just until dry ingredients are moistened (dough will be sticky).
2. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; with floured hands, knead lightly 3 to 4 times. Pat dough into an 8-inch circle on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Cut dough into 10 wedges, cutting into but not through dough. Bake at 350° for 25 minutes or until loaf sounds hollow when tapped.
