APRICOT HAZELNUT SCONES

1/4 cup packed light brown sugar, plus more for sprinkling
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut in 1/2-inch pieces and refrigerated
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup toasted, coarsely chopped hazelnuts
1/2 cup chopped dried apricots
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Jam, for serving
Unsalted butter, for serving
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly grease a baking sheet.
Sift together flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in large bowl. Using pastry cutter or your fingers, work in cold butter until mixture resembles coarse meal.
