grapefruit scones!

nothing lightens the winter mood than baking and cooking with citrus.

mix:

1 1/4 c soymilk

1 T grapefruit juice

separately mix:

3 c whole wheat flour

3 T raw cane sugar

2 T baking powder

1/4 t salt

1/3 c olive oil

zest from 2 grapefruit

mix together, break into 2 parts and flatten a bit, then cut each in six pieces like pie.

bake 15 minutes or so at 350

now the genius:

the glaze.

unfortunately, i haven't quite perfected it. i mean, powdered sugar is on my sister's poison list - you may've noticed the scone recipe uses whole wheat flour and a small bit of cane flour and olive oil instead of... well, every other oil that is bad for you. i aspire to make glaze using just cane sugar and grapefruit juice. but i didn't have time to mess around today - it's a stressful week. there's an election on tuesday.

so some day i'll melt the sugar and then add the grapefruit juice and make a better glaze. but today i used earth balance and powdered sugar and grapefruit juice, and it's heavenly.
