Begin by grinding the rolled oats into a coarse flour using a blender or food processor. This should take about one minute until the oats have a flour-like consistency.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the oat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir these dry ingredients together until well mixed.
In another bowl, whisk together the low-fat milk, egg, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth. Ensure the honey is completely dissolved.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix as this can lead to dense scones.
Preheat a non-stick griddle or skillet over medium heat and lightly coat with non-stick cooking spray.
Once the griddle is hot, drop spoonfuls of the batter onto the griddle, spacing them evenly apart. Each spoonful should be about 2 tablespoons of batter.
Cook the scones for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip them carefully with a spatula halfway through cooking.
Remove the scones from the griddle and place them on a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter, applying more cooking spray as necessary.
Serve the low-fat oat drop scones warm, and enjoy with your favorite toppings such as low-fat yogurt, fresh fruit, or a drizzle of honey.
