Ingredients

• 120 grams rolled oats
• 240 ml milk
• 85 grams unsalted butter
• 200 grams all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 50 grams granulated sugar
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 75 grams optional mix-ins (e.g., raisins, nuts, chocolate chips)

Directions

Step 1

In a small saucepan, combine the rolled oats and milk. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the oatmeal is soft and thickened (about 5 minutes). Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.

Step 2

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.

Step 4

Cut the unsalted butter into small cubes and add it to the dry ingredients. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to rub the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse breadcrumbs.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, beat the egg and stir in the vanilla extract. Add the cooled oatmeal mixture to the egg and mix until combined.

Step 6

Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet mixture. Gently stir the ingredients together until a soft dough forms. If using optional mix-ins like raisins or nuts, fold them in now.

Step 7

Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and gently knead it a few times. Pat the dough into a circle about 2.5 cm (1 inch) thick.

Step 8

Cut the circle into 8 wedges and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spaced slightly apart.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 18–20 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown and cooked through.

Step 10

Allow the scones to cool slightly on a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature with butter, jam, or a drizzle of honey.
