Pecans and oatmeal take center stage in these tender treats from Margaret Wilson. "They are delicious with jam or marmalade," says the Hemet, California reader. "I also like them with sharp cheddar cheese or a dab of relish at supper."

Tips:
- Prep your dates beforehand: It's a good idea to soak your dates in hot water before using them in this recipe. This will help to soften them and make them easier to blend. Save yourself some prep time and do this a few hours before you plan to make the scones.
- Use a quality rolled oats: The type of rolled oats you use will make a big difference in the texture of your scones. Look for a brand that is known for its quality and flavor. Avoid using quick oats or instant oats, as they will not produce the same results.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will result in tough scones. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined and then stop. Overmixing can also make the scones dry, so be careful not to do it too much.
- Bake the scones until they are golden brown: This is the best way to ensure that they are cooked through. If you take them out of the oven too early, they will be doughy in the middle. A toothpick inserted into the center of a scone should come out clean when it's done baking.
- Serve the scones warm: Oatmeal date drop scones are best served warm, either plain or with your favorite toppings. They can also be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or frozen for up to 2 months.
Conclusion:
Oatmeal date drop scones are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast treat. They are perfect for a quick and healthy breakfast or snack. With their combination of oats, dates, and spices, these scones are a great way to start your day or enjoy as an afternoon pick-me-up. So next time you're looking for a tasty and satisfying treat, give oatmeal date drop scones a try!
