List of Ingredients
- 1 cup white whole wheat flour
- 3/4 cup old-fashion rolled oats
- 1/3 cup oat bran
- 1/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
- 1 Tbsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 6 Tbsp cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes
- 2/3 cups half-and-half or milk
- 1/2 tsp maple extract
- 2/3 cups cinnamon chips
- For Maple Glaze:
- 1/2 cup Confectioners’ Sugar
- 3 Tbsp Maple Syrup
Instructions
- In a bowl, stir together the flour, rolled oats, oat bran, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Using a pastry blender or 2 knives, cut in the butter until the mixture forms large, coarse crumbs the size of peas. Pour the half-and-half and maple extract over the dry ingredients and mix with a rubber spatula until the dry ingredients are moistened. Stir in cinnamon chips into the batter.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and press together gently until the dough clings together in a ball. Pat out into a round about 1/2 inch thick and 6 1/2 inches in diameter. Use a round (or square) biscuit cutter and cut out scones. Gather up the scraps, roll or pat out again, and cut out scones. Place scones onto parchment lined baking sheet and bake 10-12 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool.
- Once scones have been cooled place on parchment paper. Whisk together the confectioners’ sugar and maple syrup until mixture is smooth. Slowly drizzle the glaze over each scone in a zigzag pattern. Allow glaze to set and serve immediately.
