Bob's Red Mill
Today, whole grains are gaining in popularity. The new USDA guidelines recommend eating at least three servings of whole grains every day. Whole grains are the seeds of grasses and are good sources of complex carbohydrates, various vitamins and minerals and are naturally low in fat. These whole grains are grains that have not been refined and retain their bran and germ, making them a good source of fiber.

Here is a sample recipe from the “Bob’s Red Mill Baking Book:”
White Chocolate Cherry Scones
1 1/3 cups unbleached white flour
2/3 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1 tablespoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
½ teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons sugar
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled and diced
1 egg
½ cup buttermilk
5 ounces white chocolate, chilled and diced
½ cup dried cherries, coarsely chopped
Milk or melted butter for glazing
Sugar and cinnamon for dusting, optional
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Lightly oil a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper. In a food processor or large bowl, pulse whisk together the flours, baking soda, cream of tartar, salt, and sugar. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Beat the egg with the buttermilk, then stir in the chocolate and cherries. Stir the buttermilk mixture into the flour until moistened. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead 5-6 times. Pat the dough into a ½ inch thick round, brush with milk or butter, and cut into 6 or 8 wedges. Sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar if desired. Place the scones on the prepared pan and bake for 15 minute or until a tester comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack and serve warm or at room temperature.
This delightful dessert scone is quick and easy to make and you can find the necessary ingredients for this recipe at Grandma’s Pantry.
