Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 ¼ cups quick-cooking oats
½ cup packed brown sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ cup butter-flavored shortening
1 cup buttermilk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Combine flour, oats, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, and nutmeg in a large bowl. Cut in shortening and mix until just a few chunks remain. Add buttermilk and vanilla extract; stir until combined.
Shape dough into individual scones, about 3 inches across and 1 inch thick. Arrange on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes before lightly dusting with powdered sugar.
