    Ingredients

    • 1 c. reduced fat Bisquick
    • 1 Tbsp. instant cream of wheat (dry)
    • 1 pch baking pwdr
    • 1 pch baking soda
    • 1/4 tsp mace or possibly nutmeg
    • 2 Tbsp. minced dates soft
    • 1 tsp vegetable oil
    • 1/2 c. mashed bananas (or possibly one banana)
    • 2 Tbsp. minced walnuts
    • 2 Tbsp. buttermilk
    • 2 Tbsp. Egg Beaters 99% egg substitute

    Directions

    1. Oven: 400F (200C)
    2. In a small bowl, combine dry ingredients. In a mixing bowl, combine wet ingredients. Add in dry to wet and stir to moisten the dry ingredients. The batter will be moist. The instant cream of wheat will use which extra moisture.
    3. Drop 1/4 c. scoops of the batter onto a spray nonstick cookie sheet. Bake 15-20 min or possibly till golden.
    4. Description: "A drier banana bread without all the sugar"
    5. NOTES : The taste, texture and aroma of these scones reminded us of banana nut bread without the sugar shock. The scones are not the typical dry, floury affairs. These are a cross between a biscuit and a cake.

      The 'Notes' describe these perfectly. I'm a die-hard scones fan and usually like the typical dry, floury ones, so I was skeptical...but I had some very ripe bananas to use and this was the only recipe using Bisquick I could find...didn't have much time, so that's why I wanted a Bisquick recipe.
      These are absolutely wonderful! The natural sugar makes them the right amount of sweet. I used regular Bisquick, not reduced fat and I didn't use the cream of wheat, only because I didn't have these items. Same with the buttermilk...I used half and half, and I used one large egg instead of the egg substitute.
