Apricot Scones with Orange Glaze

July 11, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 4 Comments

Howdy,

This past Sunday it was nice and cool in the morning and I couldn’t wait to do some baking.  The thing is, what do I make?  I have really been trying to do a refrigerator clean-up with all of the produce I have, and as I was reaching to the way back of the refrigerator I found a container of cute little apricots.  I was going to make muffins, but Saturday I made peach muffins and they were a flop.  I think I added the wrong amount of baking powder and they fell.  No poof!  So instead of muffins, I thought why not make some yummy scones?  I haven’t made them in a while and they are fast and easy to make too!

Apricot Scones with Orange Glaze

The scones came out beautifully!  But they are not your typical scone!  These do not fall apart when you eat them, so they aren’t really crumbly, plus they aren’t super sweet either, which is fine with me.  For some reason I don’t like really sweet scones.  But by all means add some more sugar if you like them sweet.  To sweetened up the scones a bit, I did add some turbinado sugar and an orange glaze to go over the top.  The orange with apricot is such a nice combination.  Glad I thought of that!

I made my scones mini too!  They are a tad smaller than the mini scones you see at Starbucks and a heck of a lot healthier for you too!  My scones are made with white whole wheat flour and I used Earth Balance margarine for those who may be vegan.  But you could also use butter or margarine of your choice.  To make them mini,  I cut them into 32 small triangles.  That way I could have them for the rest of the week, plus they are easier for snacking on and sharing with friends and family.  Plus my Husband could take a few in his lunches this week.

Here are my some of my steps so, you can make them too.  Sometimes it’s hard to give a description and think a picture is so much easier too.  Just forgive some of them!  I had sticky fingers and poor lighting.

Once I made my dough, I formed it into a rectangle about 1/4″ thick.

Then I cut them into four strips vertically and horizontally, so they form mini squares.  I cut my squares into triangles.

Then I carefully placed them on my baking sheet.  Added some coconut milk and a sprinkle of turbinado sugar and baked in the oven for about 10 minutes.

Once they came out of the oven, they puffed up all nice.

Then I let them cool and added some powdered sugar with freshly squeezed orange juice.  I brushed the glaze on with a pastry brush.

Then I took a picture of an apricot fanny for you.

If you’re not into mini scones, you could always shape them into a large circle and cut them into wedges.  I personally like things on the mini side.

The scones turned out light, fluffy, with little bites of apricot and have a nice sweet glaze over the top.  They would be perfect for a brunch or a Sunday breakfast or simply having one at your snack time.  The calories won’t hurt you either, they are only 51 calories each.

A healthy, light, fluffy egg-less scone, filled with fresh apricots and topped with a sweet orange glaze.
Serves: 32 Mini Scones
Ingredients
  • 2 cups white whole wheat flour or all purpose flour
  • 2½ tsp. baking powder
  • ¼ tsp. baking soda
  • ¼ tsp. salt
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • 5 tbsp. earth balance margarine or butter,cut into small pieces
  • ¾ cup apricots, fresh, diced small
  • ½ tsp. vanilla extract
  • ½ cup + 2 tbsp. coconut milk, unsweetened (from carton), divided
  • ½ tbsp. turbinado sugar (sugar in the raw)
  • 2 tbsp. powdered sugar
  • 11/2 tsp. orange juice
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside
  3. Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and sugar in a bowl. Cut in butter with pastry blender or a fork until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in apricots. Add ½ cup plus 1 tablespoon coconut milk, and vanilla extract; stirring just until moist.
  4. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead 15 times or until smooth.
  5. Form dough into an 8 x 8 square. If dough is sticky, sprinkle with a pinch more flour. Cut 4 even rows diagonally and vertically into the dough. Then cut the squares into triangles. I used a pizza cutter for easy cutting.
  6. Carefully Transfer dough to prepared baking sheet.
  7. With a pastry brush, brush 1 tablespoon of coconut milk over scones and sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
  8. Bake in oven for approximately for 9-11 minutes or until golden. Let cool on baking sheet for two minutes and then transfer scones to a wire rack;
  9. In a small bowl add powdered sugar and orange juice; mix until smooth. With a pastry brush, brush the scones with mixture. Let harden for a few minutes and serve.

Oh how I miss baking!  Love the summer, but that is the only thing I miss about winter is baking, but honestly I don’t miss it that much!  🙂

Well my Husband actually made dinner tonight and it’s done, so I must go and enjoy his bbq chicken with his homemade marinade.

Hope you enjoy your day!

Toodles,

Jennifer

Happy first day of Spring! Though you wouldn’t k Happy first day of Spring! Though you wouldn’t know it in California. We are still getting rain and it’s in the mid 50’s. We should be in the 70’s by now. I wonder what the summer temps will be like this year?
🌺
Even though it may not feel like Spring,  there is no reason why we can’t start prepping for it. It’s going to be time soon to plant flowers, add a floral wreath to the front door and of course a welcome mat to invite everyone to your home. 
🌺
I wanted to share with you my new welcome mat that I got from @cocomatsnmore. They just had their Spring release and oh my gosh so many cute ones. I love there welcome mats. They are thick, bright colors and fast shipping. I absolutely love the flowers and the saying “Live Life in Full Bloom”. It’s so very true.
🌺
What are you most looking forward to this Spring?

In the bowl on the tiered tray you see wooden carrots, those are from @krumpetshomedecor. They are so cute!! My dogs seem to be obsessed with them when I hung them on my cart, so I had to hide them. I’ll share them in stories today.

Happy Monday! I did a little bit of Spring cleanin Happy Monday! I did a little bit of Spring cleaning this weekend. I wanted to give my kitchen counters the less is more look.
🫧
I did have a very hard time taking my sink tray off the counter. I’ve had the tray there for years, so I thought I would change it up. Don’t be surprised if the sink tray makes its way back. 😂 I may add some herbs to my window sill for some fresh green color.
🫧
I used @cloth.bristle to clean my kitchen counters and sink. I love cleaning my sink with it. It makes it so sparkly and smells good too! Love that it’s all natural.

Happy Friday! Our next winter storm is here! It is Happy Friday! Our next winter storm is here! It is just awful out there. Heavy rain, high winds and hail. This is not a winter that we are used to in California. 
🥕
My husband and I are not fancy when it comes to eating dinner. Since it’s just the two of us, we never use the dining room table, but always eat at the kitchen counter.
🥕
There is no reason why we can’t eat fancy at the kitchen counter. I am using my new placemats that I got from @vmathome. They are thick, water, stain resistant and can handle heat up to 350F degrees. I love the color and style of the placemats. They have a wide variety of styles and colors, along with matching table runners.
🥕
I styled my table with bright spring colors that I was inspired by carrots. I still have bunnies on the brain. lol I had fun with this place setting, it’s so nice to have dinner with a little style then having it on a plain plate and paper napkins.
🥕
Have a wonderful weekend!!

Happy March 1st! Everyday is a day closer to Sprin Happy March 1st! Everyday is a day closer to Spring. I looked back last year at this time and my garden was starting to flourish. Boy you should see it now. It’s a big muddy mess. With all the rain and high winds we sure have a huge mess to clean. I can’t wait until we get some warm days. 
🐰
I’m sharing with you one of my favorite vignettes that I created last year. I may have a slight obsession with bunnies. Every year I say no more buying bunnies, but then I end up with a few more in my collection. Lol
🐰
Have a beautiful day!

Happy Monday!! Hope you had a nice weekend! I’ll Happy Monday!! Hope you had a nice weekend! I’ll be honest, I great intentions on decorating my house this weekend, but with the rain and cold, I got pretty lazy. I had packages that were supposed to arrive last week, but with the winter storms here on the west coast, my packages seem to be stuck in Nevada. This weather is so crazy!
🌸
Here is my little corner of my living room with a little pop of spring. Sorry about the lighting. With this weather, photographing is not easy.
🌸
I added a pillow that I got from Target and a white blanket I already had on hand. I of course had to add some bunnies. The wooden bunny with the flowers is from my friend Abby @ittybittycottage. 
🌸
Have a wonderful Monday!!

Happy Wednesday! We are getting such crazy weather Happy Wednesday! We are getting such crazy weather. We are having extreme winds again and boy is it cold out. It’s only in the 30’s right now and tomorrows high is in the 40’s. Normally by now I am planting seeds in the ground and prepping for Spring gardening. I don’t see that happening anytime soon. Where’s the California Spring weather?
🐰
Since we don’t have Spring outside, I thought I would bring Spring in the house. I bought my first fresh bouquet of tulips. Aren’t they pretty? This makes me so happy. Plus I couldn’t resist bringing the bunnies out. They seemed to have multiplied since last Spring. lol
🐰
This Spring vignette was inspired by the beautiful welcome sign from @krumpetshomedecor. I love the bead handle and the cute little bunny on it. The sign is reversible, swipe to see other side. So you can use it all year. It would be beautiful in an entry, guest bedroom and on your front porch.

Happy Monday! Hope you had a nice weekend. Yesterd Happy Monday! Hope you had a nice weekend. Yesterday we watched on Netflix Your Place or Mine with Reese Witherspoon and Ashton Kutcher. If you like the classic Rom-Com movies you’ll enjoy it.
💗
I added a little of Spring decor to my bench in my living room. I will probably change this spot up once I pull my spring decor out, but for now I like it.
💗
It’s crazy how big this space looks in video, when it’s quite small. I call this my runway zone because the dogs run through this space like maniacs. So I have to keep it light with no breakables. 
💗
The two large pillows are from Target and the little bunny pillow is from the Target Dollar Spot. The throw is from Pier1 when they had a storefront. The sign on the wall is from Krumpets Home Decor.

Have you started decorating for Spring?
