Maple Oatmeal Scones Recipes

INA'S MAPLE SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.with rack in center. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour, oats, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Blend butter in at the lowest speed, and mix until butter is in pea-size pieces. In a medium bowl, combine buttermilk, maple syrup, and 4 eggs; mix to combine. Add egg mixture to flour mixture. Mix until just blended. The dough may be sticky.
• Place dough on a well-floured surface. Roll dough out to a 3/4- to 1-inch thickness with a well-floured rolling pin (there will be lumps of butter in dough). Cut into 3-inch rounds with a plain or fluted cutter, and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
• Brush tops of scones with egg wash. Bake until tops are crisp and insides are done, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove baking sheet to wire rack to cool for 5 minutes.
• Make the glaze: Combine confectioners' sugar, maple syrup, and vanilla. Drizzle each cooled scone with 1 tablespoon glaze (the warmer the scones are when glazed, the thinner the glaze will be). Sprinkle with uncooked oats, if desired, and serve.

MAPLE SCONES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. In a large bowl, combine whole-wheat flour, 1 cup white flour, brown sugar, baking powder and salt. Using a pastry blender, or two knives scissors-fashion, cut butter into flour mixture until mixture resembles fine crumbs.
• Add nuts or wheat berries. Stir in the maple syrup and egg and just enough milk so that dough leaves side of bowl and forms a ball. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface; gently roll in flour to coat. Knead lightly; if dough is very soft, roll in flour again. Transfer to a lightly greased baking sheet. Pat or roll into an 8-inch disk; cut into 8 wedges, but do not separate.
• Bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Immediately remove from baking sheet, and carefully separate. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F.

• Add maple syrup and butter and mix well.
• In a small bowl, beat the egg with the cream and maple extract.
• Pour the egg mixture into the flour mixture and mix well.
• Add pecans and mix just to incorporate.
• Place dough on a floured surface. Knead and pat dough into a 8 to 10 inch circle and cut into 8 wedges.
• Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. Place wedges on top and bake for 13 to 15 minutes, or until light brown.
• Remove scones from oven to wire rack. Let cool about 3 to 5 minutes.
• Mix glaze ingredients until smooth. Adjust the amount of water to get to the desired consistency. I like the glaze to be rather thick. Spread lots of glaze over each scone and dry about 15 minutes before serving.

MAPLE-OATMEAL SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F Line two baking sheets with parchment or Silpats.
• In a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, combine flour, oats, baking powder, sugar and salt. Mix until evenly distributed. Add butter and mix on lowest speed until butter is in pea-sized lumps.
• Whisk together buttermilk, maple syrup and eggs. Pour into mixer all at once and mix until just combined; the dough may be sticky.
• Turn the dough out onto a well-floured surface and knead once or twice to ensure it is thoroughly mixed. You should still see lumps of butter in the dough. Flour a rolling pin well and roll out to 3/4 to 1 inch thick, then use a 3" round or fluted cookie/biscuit cutter and place scones on baking sheets.
• Brush tops with egg wash, then bake 20-25 minutes until crisp on top and done in the middle.
• While they bake, combine the glaze ingredients. Cool the scones 5 minutes, then drizzle each with 1 tbsp of glaze (the warmer the scones are when you do this, the more glaze will run off and the thinner the glaze layer will be). Sprinkle a pinch of raw oats on each scone.
