Drop Biscuits and Creamy Apricot Spread

- 1½ cups healthy variety pancake and baking mix, such as Bisquick Heart Smart
- â…” cup 1% fat buttermilk
- 2 teaspoons apricot fruit spread
- 2 tablespoons diet margarine
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions:
Fresh orange sections are sold in the produce section of your supermarket. If desired, substitute ⅓ cup orange sections for each of the whole oranges.
- Preheat the oven to 450ËšF.
- Combine the baking mix and buttermilk in a medium bowl, and stir until just blended. Spoon onto an ungreased, nonstick cookie sheet in eight mounds, about 2 inches apart. Bake 8 minutes or until lightly golden.
- Meanwhile, place the fruit spread in a small microwave-safe bowl and cook on High for 10 seconds or until slightly melted. Remove from the microwave, add the margarine and vanilla, and stir with a fork until well blended. It may be a bit lumpy at this point.
- Using a serrated knife, split the biscuits in half crosswise, and spoon equal amounts of the apricot mixture on top of each.
