SCOTTISH BUTTERMILK STEEL CUT OAT SCONES
Steel cut oats are my new passion. I haven't tried this recipe yet, but will shortly. It comes from Bob's Red Mill, an excellent brand of healthy grains, etc. The recipe seems a tad fussy, but my mouth waters just thinking about the yummy (and healthy) end result.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350F degrees.
- Place the oats in a pie pan and toast them for 20 minutes, stirring often to toast evenly and not burn.
- Remove when slightly golden.
- Combine oats with buttermilk in a small bowl and let stand for 20 minutes.
- In a large bowl, combine the flours, baking soda, sugar, baking powder, salt and dried currants.
- Reset the oven to 400F degrees.
- Butter a baking sheet.
- Using a pastry blender, cut the 4 tablespoons butter into the flour until the texture is coarsely crumbled.
- Stir in the buttermilk/oat mixture until combined.
- Flour your hands and scoop up the dough, forming it into a ball. Do not overmix.
- Press the ball of dough directly into the pan, then press into a 3/4" thick circle.
- With a sharp knife, score the surface, almost to the bottom, making eight wedges.
- Brush the surface with milk and sprinkle a bit of sugar and cinnamon on top.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes.
- Cut into wedges.
