Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 ¼ cups quick-cooking oats

  • ½ cup packed brown sugar

  • 2 teaspoons baking powder

  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg

  • ½ cup butter-flavored shortening

  • 1 cup buttermilk

  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

  • 1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar (Optional)

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Combine flour, oats, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, and nutmeg in a large bowl. Cut in shortening and mix until just a few chunks remain. Add buttermilk and vanilla extract; stir until combined.

  3. Shape dough into individual scones, about 3 inches across and 1 inch thick. Arrange on the prepared baking sheet.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes before lightly dusting with powdered sugar.

Cook's Note:

Use dark or light brown sugar, whichever you prefer.
