what you need
- 2 1/2 cups flour
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 Tbsp. baking powder
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1/2 tsp. nutmeg
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
- 1 cup (8 oz.) plain low fat yogurt
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- 1 pkg. (5 oz.) cranberries

make it
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, nutmeg; mix well. Combine egg, yogurt, oil, and vanilla; blend well. Add to flour mixture; stir until dry ingredients are moistened. Stir in cranberries.
Shape dough into an 8-inch circle on a floured surface. Cut into 8 or 12 wedges. (They rise a lot, and I sprinkle tops with sugar.) Place on cookie sheet or in scone pan.
Bake in upper third of oven for 15 minutes, or until lightly browned. Serve warm or cold. Freeze well.
