Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Dried cherries
Directions
Step 1
Layer the dry ingredients in the jar in the following order for a visually appealing presentation: all-purpose flour, rolled oats, granulated sugar, baking powder, ground cinnamon, salt, and dried cherries. Pack each layer tightly before adding the next.
Step 2
Seal the jar with a tight-fitting lid and attach a printed tag or label with the baking instructions.
Step 3
To bake the scones: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 4
In a mixing bowl, empty the contents of the jar. Add 1/2 cup of cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes, and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to incorporate the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Step 5
Stir in 1/2 cup of milk (or more as needed) until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 6
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently shape it into a round disc about 1 inch thick. Cut into 8 wedges and transfer the wedges to the prepared baking sheet.
Step 7
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown and fragrant. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
