I have to add to the number of positive reviews for these scones. I made them as stated, except added a bit of almond extract and dried cherries that had been softened in water. Family raved and this WILL be our new favorite recipe.

Wow, yummy! Made it as written except for the 3/4 cup applesauce/ 1/4 c. oil substitution that many made. Also greased and sugared the pan and made it with 1 c. white sugar and 1 c. of brown sugar. A definite keeper!

Update: 8-30-10 LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS BREAD!! We now substitute 1/2 c. applesauce and 1/2 c. oil for the 1 c. vegetable oil it calls for and last night, tried adding Hershey's Special Dark chocolate chips. TO DIE FOR! Yum. A week ago we made this bread exactly as written, dividing it into a smaller loaf pan and a cupcake tin. Tonight, we "discovered" a lone cupcake still in a plastic container in the refrigerator. My husband asked if we should throw it away because he was sure it would be disgusting and dry. We each took a half and then instantly regretted sharing. Moist, delicious and wonderful.
