Ingredients

Scones

  • 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup white sugar
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 1/4 cups old fashioned rolled oatmeal
  • 1/2 cup raisins
  • 1 large egg
  • 10 tbsp melted (unsalted) butter
  • 1/3 cup milk

Glaze

  • 1 cup confectioners sugar
  • 1 tbsp half and half
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 450.

    Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir in oatmeal and raisins. Add egg, melted butter, and milk. Stir until moistened. (Do not over stir).

    Transfer dough to a generously floured surface. Form into an 8"x 3/4" circle (moving dough constantly). Cut into 8 wedges. Place the wedges a 1/2" apart on an un-greased 9x13 baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes, or until lightly brown.

    Meanwhile: Beat confectioner's sugar, half and half, vanilla and cinnamon in a medium mixing bowl. Ice scones with glaze and sprinkle on oatmeal. (optional) Serve warm.

    This recipe is unusual, as it calls for melted butter, instead of cold butter. The dough will be sticky. Keep dough moving to keep it from sticking to a floured surface. I use a spatula to lift it onto baking sheet.
