Whole Wheat Scones with Gojiberries

I fell in love with scones and already enjoyed my scones with coconut. This version includes dried gojiberries the new powerfruit.

I was curious, of course. They are actually quite pretty and I wish I had taken a picture before baking the scones. The bright red colour is amazing and the taste is a bit like a mix of cranberry and strawberry.

Scones with Gojibeeries

Adapted from “Eat Well- Sonoma Williams”

2 cups whole wheat flour

1 cup rolled oats

1/4 cup sugar

1 Tbsp baking powder

2 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

6 tbsp cold margarine

1/2 cup cold buttermilk

1/4 cup plain yoghurt

1 egg

1/2 cup gojibeeries
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips

Mix your dry ingredients. Using a pastry mixer or 2 knives cut in your cold butter. Then add the wet ingredients and try not to over-mix it. With floured hands form your scones and place on a baking tray.

Bake at 180C for approx. 20-25min until slightly browned. Enjoy!

I usually bake a big batch and freeze the scones and it works like a charm.

He does not stand a chance. I made them for myself. Ya, I am that selfish
