Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use whole wheat flour instead of Bisquick?
Yes, you can substitute whole wheat flour for Bisquick, but you will need to adjust the liquid ingredients slightly as whole wheat absorbs more moisture. Add a bit more yogurt or milk to achieve the desired dough consistency.
How can I make these scones sweeter?
To increase the sweetness, you can add 1/4 cup of sugar or brown sugar to the dough. You might also consider drizzling a glaze made from powdered sugar and milk over the cooled scone sticks for an added touch of sweetness.
Can I add nuts or other fruits to the recipe?
Absolutely! Feel free to mix in chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans, or other dried fruits such as cranberries or apricots. Just be sure to keep the total amount of mix-ins to about 1/2 cup to maintain the dough's consistency.
