Oatmeal Honey Scones

This recipe came from my Irish cookbook.

It wanted me to cut the dough into triangles but I couldn't.

The dough was too wet and sticky.

So I just used my scooper and flattened them with my finger.

They didn't taste like scones.

They were more like oatmeal raisin cookies.

Go figure.

But they were good anyway! O:kay, here is the recipe.

Oatmeal Honey Scones

3/4 cup butter

1 cup firmly packed brown sugar

1/4 cup honey

1 egg

2 tbsp milk

1 1/2 tsp vanilla

3 cups quick oats, uncooked

1 cup flour

1/2 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 tsp cinnamon

1 cup raisins

Heat oven to 375 degrees. Grease baking sheets. Combine first six ingredients in a bowl. Beat at medium speed with mixer until blended. Combine next five ingredients. Mix into creamed mixture at low speed until blended. Stir in raisins. Pat dough into 8x5 inch rectangle, 3/4 inch thick. Cut into 2 inch triangles. Place 2 inches apart on baking sheets using pancake turner. Bake on at a time for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned. Do not over bake. Cool 2 minutes on baking sheet. Remove to a cooling rack to cool completely. Makes about 1 1/2 dozen scones.

Enjoy!
