Ingredients

  • 3 cups flour
  • 3 tea. baking powder
  • 1/2 tea. salt
  • 1/2 tea. baking soda
  • 1 cup cold butter
  • 1 egg
  • 3/4 cup (6 oz) vanilla yogurt
  • 3 Tbsp. 2% milk, divided

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

In a large bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

In another bowl, whisk egg, yogurt and 2 Tbsp. milk; stir into crumb mixture just until moistened. Stir in apple, cheese and sage.

Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead gently 10 times. Divide dough in half; pat each portion into a 6" circle. Cut each circle into eight wedges; cut each wedge in half.

Transfer to parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Brush tops with remaining milk; sprinkle with sugar.

Bake 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.
