  1. 3 cups all purpose flour
  2. 3 teaspoons baking powder
  3. 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  4. 1/2 teaspoon salt
  5. 1 cup (2 sticks) cold butter, cut into tablespoons

Directions:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F

In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, soda and salt; cut in butter using a pastry blender or two knifes (in a scissor motion) until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Stir in egg, yogurt and vanilla just until combined. Turn onto a floured surface; knead 6-8 times.

Serve warm drizzled with glaze or plain.

Glaze:
In a small bowl, stir milk into powdered sugar. Add more milk (1 tbsp at a time), if needed to achieve desired consistency.
