Pizza scones are awesome!! the kids love them in lunches. Sometimes I change it up and use ham and cheese. Pizza scone recipe. (any scone...add your own meats/cheeses)
Easy and low fat
1 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup white flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 teaspoons sugar
3 tablespoons margarine/butter
3/4 cup buttermilk
2 large egg whites
about 1 cup or so of cut up pepperoni, not in slices but cubed from the slices
about the same of shredded mozzarella cheese
pizza sauce
So..mix all the dry ingredients together. Add the butter and mix it so it's kinda cornmealish. Combine the buttermilk and egg whites together and add it to the dry mixture. Add the pepperoni and cheese and mix again. On a pastry board or whatever, Put down some flour, take the dough out and knead it a couple of times (about 4 times). Make sure it's lightly covered in dough.
Shape it into a flat round circle and cut it into triangles but don't seperate the pieces (bake it as a circle)
Spray a cookie sheet with Pam and slide it onto sheet (or cut it into triangles on the sheet)Brush pizza sauce over the top (not too much) and bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.
Yummy, moist.
When you pull it out of the oven, cool it on a cooling rack and seperate the pieces. I just bag em up when they are cooled toss them in the fridge and they are ready to grab for lunches. I usually make a couple of batches and freeze some too for emergencies.
Takes about 1/2 hour from start to finish and I'll often whip up some in the morning as the masses are showering for school.
You can mix it up a bit by omitting the pizza sauce and using ham and cheese, or other ingredients to your liking.
