IRISH CRAN OAT SCONES
I found this recipe on the Food Network site. It came from the show Calling all Cooks. These are easy and very good!! You can also brush the tops of the scones with cream and sprinkle with turbinado sugar before baking to add a little crunch and some extra sweetness. (we thought they were perfect...with the added sugar crunch!)

LEMON CRANBERRY OAT SCONES
Yum. Made this recipe up this morning, based on my usual scone recipe, but I goofed with the amount of oats and it was a happy mistake! I hope you like them! I should note that this is a more healthy, grainy, scone, not a buttery & flaky one - DH & I have really come to enjoy this for a more stick-to-your-ribs scone. Edited Nov '10 to only fresh or frozen cranberries, as the moisture is essential to the scone's texture.
