Caramel Apple Scones


1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons cold butter
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons half-and-half cream
1 egg yolk
1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2/3 cup shredded peeled apple
1 tablespoon caramel ice cream topping
Directions
In a small bowl, combine the flours, brown sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a small bowl, whisk the cream, egg yolk and vanilla; add to dry ingredients just until moistened. Stir in apple. Turn onto a floured surface; knead 10 times.
Pat into a 5-in. circle. Cut into four wedges. Separate wedges and place on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 400° for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Cool for 10 minutes. Drizzle with caramel topping.
