Yield 12 scones

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups rolled oats
2 cups sifted all purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) chilled butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2/3 cup raisins or substitute other dried fruit
1 1/4 cup (about) buttermilk
Half and half (optional)
Sugar (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Finely grind 1 cup oats in food processor. Blend in flour, 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add butter and cut in until mixture resembles coarse meal, using on/off turns. Transfer to large bowl. Mix in 2/3 cup raisins and remaining 1 cup oats. Make well in center of mixture. Gradually mix in enough buttermilk to form moist dough. Gently kneed dough on lightly floured surface until smooth, about 10 turns. Divide into 3 pieces. Pat each into 3/4-inch-thick round on floured surface. Cut each into quarters. Optional: brush with half and half and sprinkle with sugar. Transfer to baking sheet. (Can be prepared 4 hours ahead. Cover and refrigerate.) Bake until golden brown, about 28 minutes. Serve hot.
