Relatively Healthy Oatmeal Scones Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine dry ingredients: flour, oats, sugar, baking powder, cream of tarter and salt.
• In a small bowl, combine wet ingredients: butter,milk and egg,
• Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix, only until moist.
• Add raisins (or currents).
• Shape into a ball.
• Pat out on a lightly floured board into an 8 inch circle.
• Cut into 8-12 wedges.
• Bake on a greased cookie sheet in a 425 degree oven for 12-15 minutes or until brown.

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Mix together dry ingredients (flour, oats, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt).
• Cut in butter (I like to dice the butter and add it in, separating the cubes) and combine using a fork until the mixture resembles bread crumbs.
• Add dried fruit to dry mixture if desired.
• In a separate bowl, mix together the wet ingredients (buttermilk, half-and-half, vanilla).
• Gradually add wet mixture to the flour mixture and combine until a soft and sticky dough is formed.
• Move dough to a lightly floured surface and knead 2-3 times. Do not overwork the dough. Roll the dough into a 6-8-inch circle (depending on how thick you like your scones) and cut into 8 pie-shaped slices. You can experiment with other dough shapes (such as circles) to maximize servings.
• Bake in preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until scones are golden-brown and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
• For extra crunch and golden color, brush the tops of the scones with buttermilk. Liberally sprinkle sugar on top and broil carefully for a few minutes, turning and adjusting as necessary. Be sure to watch as sugar browns quickly.
• Enjoy.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine the flours, oats, baking powder, sugar and salt. Blend the cold butter in at the lowest speed and mix until the butter is in pea-size pieces. Combine the buttermilk, maple syrup and eggs and add quickly to the flour-and-butter mixture. Mix until just blended. The dough may be sticky.
• Dump the dough out onto a well-floured surface and be sure it is combined. Flour your hands and a rolling pin and roll the dough 3/4 to 1 inch thick. You should see lumps of butter in the dough. Cut into 3-inch rounds with a plain or fluted cutter and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
• Brush the tops with egg wash. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the tops are crisp and the insides are done.
• To make the glaze, combine the confectioners' sugar, maple syrup and vanilla. When the scones are done, cool for 5 minutes and drizzle each scone with 1 tablespoon of the glaze. I like to sprinkle some uncooked oats on the top, for garnish. The warmer the scones are when you glaze them, the thinner the glaze will be.
