THE BEST OATMEAL SCONES

Steps:

• 1. Heat oven to 375 F. Spread oats on a baking sheet. Bake in preheated oven 9-10 minutes, until oats are lightly browned. Cool completely. Increase oven heat to 450 F.
• 2. In a food processor, pulse flour, coconut sugar, baking powder, and salt until combined. Pulse in cold butter until mixture looks like coarse cornmeal. Place mixture in a large bowl and set aside.
• 3. In a small bowl, whisk milk, cream, and eggs until smooth. Set aside two tablespoons for brushing scones.
• 4. Stir cooled oats, cinnamon, and raisins into flour mixture. Pour milk mixture over top and gently stir with a rubber spatula until just combined. Gently knead with hands until mixture forms a ball. Divide dough in half and shape one half into a 7-in round. With a sharp knife, cut round into eighths. Place each wedge on parchment paper lined baking sheets, spacing 2 in apart. Repeat with remaining half of dough. Brush each wedge with reserved milk mixture. Bake in preheated oven 12 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on baking sheet 5 minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack. Serve warm.
• Yield: 16 scones.
• Store in an airtight container at room temperature up to 2 days.

SCOTTISH OAT SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
• In a large bowl, mix the flour, oats, sugar, baking powder, salt, and currants. Make a well in the center. In a small bowl, beat egg until frothy, and stir in melted butter and milk. Pour into the well, and mix to create a soft dough. Pat dough into two 1/2 inch thick circles. Place on the prepared baking sheet. Score 8 wedges into each circle of dough.
• Bake 15 minutes in the preheated oven, until risen and browned. Split wedges, and serve warm.

SUNFLOWER OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, cream together the white sugar, brown sugar, and butter until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. Combine the flour, baking powder, and baking soda; stir into the creamed mixture until just blended. Mix in the rolled oats and sunflower seeds. Stir in coconut if desired. Drop dough by heaping teaspoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets. Leave room for spreading.
• Bake for 10 to 12 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the cookies begin to brown around the edge. Allow cookies to set for a few minutes on the sheet before removing to wire racks to cool completely.
