My aunt makes these for breakfast every time I visit - they are a great breakfast with fruit and yogurt and my favorite part of visiting. My mom makes a half batch during the week for breakfast as well. A full batch will make about 30-36 scones depending on scoop size. Ingredients:
3 eggs |
1 1/2 cups buttermilk |
3 cups flour |
3/4 cup brown sugar |
1 cup rolled oats |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
4 teaspoons baking powder |
3/4 cup butter, chilled |
1 cup mini chocolate chip |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and buttermilk.
2. Set aside.
3. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, oats, salt, baking soda, cinnamon and baking powder.
4. Cut in the cold butter until mixture resembles coarse meal.
5. Add chocolate chips and mix.
6. Gently stir in the egg/buttermilk mixture and stir just until soft dough forms. Don't overmix.
7. Using a cookie scoop, drop dough about 2 inches apart onto well greased baking sheets. I put 12 on a sheet and use four sheets for a full batch.
8. Bake at 375 degrees for 7 minutes.
9. Rotate pans and bake another 5-7 minutes.
10. Serve warm or cooled.
11. Will keep for several days if kept in an air tight container.
