Yet another new scone recipe that I've come up with. We like these scones because they're hearty, healthy, tasty, and hold you to lunch! I hope you enjoy these as much as we do. These scones are not overly sweet, so if you like your scones sweet, you may wish to add more brown sugar. Ingredients:
1/2 cup oatmeal, preferably large flake but quick oats will work as well |
1/2 cup flour |
1/2 cup whole wheat flour |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
2 tablespoons brown sugar |
1 teaspoon orange zest (more, depending on preference) |
1 tablespoon oil |
1 cup cranberries (fresh or frozen) |
1/4 cup pecans, chopped |
1/2 cup milk |
light demerara sugar, for sprinkling on top |
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 400.
2. Mix dry ingredients together (oatmeal, flours, baking powder, orange zest, sugar). Stir oil into dry ingredients. Add cranberries and pecans and stir. Add milk and stir until the dry ingredients are damp.
3. Drop into four mounds on parhment paper lined or greased baking sheet. Sprinkle with demerara sugar.
4. Bake at 400 for 20 minutes, until lightly browned.
