Wheaten Scones (Diabetic Friendly) image

I have been making these scones for a long time now and they are so quick to make and if like me you are a diabetic you can have these as they are very plain or you can add to them by the way of reduced sugar jam or cheese. I like to freeze them and when I feel in need of something they only take 30seconds in the micro to thaw and are just like they were right out of the oven. I found this recipe on a web site but can't remember which one but it's a very old recipe. You can use what flour ratio you like I usually do half of one and half of the other.
