Maple Oatmeal Scones


I made these scones last week and fell in love with them! They are so yummy... and make a really good breakfast! I got the recipe from a Food Network Magazine... but I have tweaked it alot.

Maple Oatmeal Scones
3 1/2 cups Flour
1 cup Multigrain Flour
1 cup Oats (not quick cook)
2 Tbsp baking powder
2 Tbsp Sugar
1 cup cold butter
1/2 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup maple syrup
4 large eggs
2 tsp maple extract

1)Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2) In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, combine flours, oats, baking powder, and sugar. Blend in cold butter on the lowest speed. Butter should be in pea sized pieces
3) Combine the buttermilk, syrup, eggs and extract and add to the flour mixture. Mix until just blended. The dough will be sticky!
4)using floured hands scoop out a small amout of dough and form a ball. Place on a cookie sheet.
5) Bake for 20 minutes until tops or crisp and edges are brown.
6) Top with following glaze
