Ingredients

1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1 cup all-purpose white flour
1 cup quick-cooking oats
1/2 cup oat bran
2 tablespoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
4 tablespoons reduced-fat margarine
1/2 cup currants
2/3 cup fat-free plain yogurt
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup orange juice
1/4 cup sugar
2 eggs

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 425°F.

2. Mix flours, oats, oat bran, baking powder, salt, and cream of tartar in a bowl.

3. Cut in margarine until mixture is mealy. Add currants and mix until coated with flour.

4. In a small bowl, mix together yogurt, vanilla, orange juice, sugar, and eggs and add to dry ingredients, mixing just until a ball of dough forms. If mixture is too dry, add 1-2 Tbsp more yogurt.

5. Knead dough on floured pastry cloth about 10 times. Divide dough in half, and form two circles of dough about 1/2 inch thick.

6. Transfer to baking sheet coated with nonstick cooking spray, and cut each circle into 8 pie-shaped wedges.

7. Bake for 12-15 minutes.
