Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup Rolled oats
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 0.5 cup Chopped walnuts
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 0.25 cup Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 Egg (large)
- 0.5 cup For the glaze: Powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons For the glaze: Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon For the glaze: Milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the chopped walnuts to evenly distribute them throughout the mixture.
In a small bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and egg.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Gently stir until the mixture begins to come together. Do not overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and shape it into a circle about 1 inch thick and 8 inches in diameter.
Using a sharp knife or bench scraper, cut the circle into 8 equal triangles.
Transfer the scones to the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
Bake the scones in the preheated oven for 16-18 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
While the scones cool slightly, prepare the glaze by whisking together powdered sugar, maple syrup, and milk until smooth.
Drizzle the glaze over the warm scones. Serve immediately or let the glaze set before storing.
