Recipe Directions
Heat oven to 375°F. Combine flour, apricots, sugar, orange peel, baking powder, baking soda and salt in large bowl; cut in 1/4 cup cold Land O' Lakes® Butter with pastry blender or fork until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Combine sour cream, egg, orange juice and 1 teaspoon almond flavoring in small bowl. Stir into flour mixture just until moistened (1 minute). Turn dough onto lightly floured surface; knead 5 to 8 times until smooth.
Pat dough to 7-inch circle on greased baking sheet. Score into 6 wedges; do not separate.
Bake for 18 to 25 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, combine powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon Land O' Lakes® Butter, 1/8 teaspoon almond flavoring and enough milk for desired glazing consistency. Drizzle over warm scones.
