Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 cup cold butter, cubed
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup dried apricots, chopped
  • 2 tbsp fresh ginger, finely grated
  • Zest of 1 orange

Мethod of preparation

Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda. Incorporate the cold butter using a pastry blender or two forks, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a separate bowl, mix buttermilk, egg, and vanilla extract, then add to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Fold in chopped apricots, grated ginger, and orange zest. On a floured surface, knead the dough lightly, then press into a round shape about 1 inch thick. Cut into wedges and place on a baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, about 15-18 minutes. Let cool before serving.
