Sift together dry ingredients in a bowl (flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt).  Cut in margarine with a pastry cutter or fork until mixture resembles coarse meal.  Add buttermilk and Better'n Eggs and mix until ingredients are moistened.  Turn dough out onto lightly floured surface.  Knead 4-5 times with floured hands.  Pat dough into a 1/2-inch thick circle.  Cut 2-in. circles from dough with a biscuit cutter or water glass.  Place circles on a baking sheet that has been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.  Place 1T. of strawberry preserves on top of each and sprinkle with nuts.  Bake at 400℉ for 12 min. or until golden.  Yield:  1 dozen.
