Lavender-Apricot Swirls

 

Recipe By :Cooking Light, June 2000

Serving Size : 9 Preparation Time :0:00

Categories : Breakfast & Brunch

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

1/4 cup sugar

2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

3 tablespoons chilled butter or stick margarine -- cut into small

piece

2 tablespoons chopped fresh lavender leaves

1/2 cup 1% low-fat milk

1 large egg -- lightly beaten

2 tablespoons apricot preserves

Cooking spray

1 1/2 teaspoons sugar

 

1. Preheat oven to 375°.

 

2. Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups, and level with a knife. Combine

flour, 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl; cut in butter with a

pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in

lavender. Add milk and egg, stirring just until moist.

 

3. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead 5 times. Roll into a 9 x

7 inch rectangle. Spread apricot preserves over dough, leaving a ½-inch border.

Beginning with long side, roll up jelly-roll fashion, pinch seam to seal (do not

seal ends of roll). Cut roll into 9 (1-inch) slices. Place slices, cut sides up,

in an 8-inch round cake pan coated with cooking spray. Sprinkle the slices with

1 1/2 teaspoons sugar. Bake at 375° for 35 minutes or until golden brown and a

wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Yield: 9 servings.

 

NOTE: To freeze for up to 1 month, place swirls in an airtight container, or

wrap in heavy-duty plastic wrap or foil. Unwrap and thaw at room temperature 2

hours before serving.
