FABULOUS FIG SCONES

FABULOUS FIG SCONES image

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup canola oil
1 egg, lightly beaten
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup white sugar
1 cup fresh figs, diced

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly sprinkle flour over paper.
Whisk flour, oats, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl. Whisk oil and egg together in a separate bowl until smooth; add honey and mix well. Mix oil mixture into flour mixture just until batter is moistened.
Sprinkle sugar over figs in a bowl and toss to coat; fold into batter.
Transfer batter to the middle of the prepared baking sheet and form into a 7-inch circle.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Score the batter into 8 sections and continue baking until scones are cooked through and lightly browned on top, about 20 minutes more.
Cut into 8 scones and slide every other scone back from the circle to allow cooling.
Note: Dry figs may be substituted. Mix with 1/4 cup of hot water and allow to stand while preparing the rest of the batter.
