Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
• 1/4 cup natural bran
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 teaspoons cinnamon
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled
• 1 egg
• 2/3 cup buttermilk
• 2/3 cup chopped dates

Directions

1. 1

   Combine the all-purpose and whole wheat flours, the bran, baking powder, soda, salt, cinnamon and brown sugar. Cut in the butter. (Or combine in a food processor, just until crumbly.) Add the egg, buttermilk, and dates; do not overmix. (If the dough seems too sticky to work with add a couple more tablespoons flour.) Shape the dough into a rectangle about 1 inch thick on a floured surface. Cut into 12 triangles.

2. 2

   Bake on an ungreased baking sheet in a preheated 350 degree F oven about 25 minutes. Cool on a rack.
