Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°.

Combine first 5 ingredients in a large bowl; cut in margarine with a pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse meal. Combine maple syrup, maple flavoring, egg whites, and yogurt; add to dry ingredients, stirring just until dry ingredients are moistened.
