Servings: 8
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1 tbsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 6 tbsp cold unsalted butter cubed
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup milk of choice
- 1 tsp vanilla
For the cinnamon sugar topping:
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter melted
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350° F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Then, add in the oats and stir again. Add in the cubed butter and using a pastry cutter or your hands, break the butter into the dry ingredients until the consistency resembles small pebbles (be patient – this takes a few minutes!).
- In a medium bowl, whisk the egg, milk, and vanilla together. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until combined (the mixture will be a little bit sticky).
- Flour a baking mat and then scoop the dough out onto the mat. Use your hands to form dough into a circular round, about ½" thick and 7"-8" circumference. Be careful not to roll it out too thin or the scones won't be the correct texture.
- Use a knife to make 4 cuts, creating 8 scones. Transfer the scones onto the baking sheet. In a shallow dish, mix together the sugar and cinnamon. Brush scones with the melted butter, then sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar. Bake in the oven for 20 minutes and then remove from the oven and allow to cool about 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
