Scottish Buttermilk Steel Cut Oat Scones image

Steel cut oats are my new passion. I haven't tried this recipe yet, but will shortly. It comes from Bob's Red Mill, an excellent brand of healthy grains, etc. The recipe seems a tad fussy, but my mouth waters just thinking about the yummy (and healthy) end result.

Butter a cookie sheet and after mixing everything but don't over mix place on the cookie sheet making into a large circle about 3/4 inches thick. Score the top into 8 wedges and brush with milk. Mix cinnamon and sugar and sprinkle on top. Bake 12-15 minutes.

STEEL CUT OATMEAL SCONES

Very slightly sweet, quite healthy compared to your average scone. If you want this sweet add another 1/2 cup sugar or splenda!! Great for on the go. This is also great if you add a cup of dried fruit such as blueberries, cherries or currants at the end. Be careful not to overmix and remember, these are not meant to be sweet. Caution this is a fairly moist dough, just use quite a bit of flour to avoid sticking. This recipe is lower calorie, high fiber, high protein (for a scone), and very low GI. These will keep you full for a very long time.
