Shortcakes

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (about 9 ounces)
  • 1/3 cup regular oats
  • 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/4 cup butter chilled, cut into small pieces
  • 1/2 cup 1% low-fat milk
  • 1 tbsp water
  • Cooking spray
  • 1 large egg white lightly beaten
  • 1 tsp granulated sugar

filling

  • 5 1/2 cups Bosc pears (about 6 pears) sliced,peeled,ripe
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cups frozen fat-free vanilla yogurt

Recipe Method

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

2. To prepare shortcakes, lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flour and next 6 ingredients (through ginger) in a bowl, stirring with a whisk. Cut in 1/4 cup butter with 2 knives until butter pieces are pea-sized.

3. Add milk and 1/4 cup water; stir just until moist. Drop dough by level 1/4 cup measures 2 inches apart onto a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Flatten dough to 1/2-inch thickness using floured hands. Let stand 5 minutes.

4. Combine 1 tablespoon water and egg white. Brush egg white mixture over dough; sprinkle evenly with granulated sugar. Bake at 375 degrees for 15 minutes or until golden. Remove from pan; cool on a wire rack.

5. To prepare filling, combine pears and lemon juice; toss to coat. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add pear mixture; saute 2 minutes. Stir in 3 tablespoons brown sugar; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer for 5 minutes or until the sauce thickens slightly, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat; stir in vanilla.

6. Split each shortcake in half horizontally using a serrated knife. Spoon about 1/3 cup pear mixture over bottom half of each shortcake; top each serving with top of shortcake and 1/4 cup yogurt.
