Multi-Grain Scones
(special thanks to Watkins Customer Diane Beitz for
this recipe!)
These scones are the perfect answer to the morning rush.
Unlike a lot of low-fat foods, which can be so loaded with sugar that you feel hungry soon after eating them, these are
quite filling - you can eat just half of one and still satisfy the need for morning sustenance. Plus, you'll get in a
nice amount of bran for the day, an appropriate source of roughage.
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 5 tablespoons Watkins Original Grapeseed Oil
- 1/8 teaspoon Watkins Lemon Peel
- 1/2 cup oatmeal (not instant)
- 1/4 cup wheat bran
- 1 1/2 cups unbleached white flour
- 2 tablespoons millet
- 2 tablespoons Watkins Poppy Seeds
- 1/2 teaspoon Watkins Sea Salt (ground)
- 1 tablespoon Watkins Baking Powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Watkins Cinnamon
- 1/2 cup milk
Zesty Lemon Topping:
- 3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
Preheat oven to 375°F.
Whisk the egg, sugar and oil together in a bowl. Mix the lemon peel and all of the dry ingredients together in a
separate bowl and stir with a wooden spoon until all of them are evenly dispersed throughout. Slowly add the dry
ingredients into the egg, sugar and oil, and mix to create a thick dough. Add the milk and mix well.
Lightly grease a baking pan. Scoop up tablespoonfuls of the dough and drop them one by
one in mounds onto the baking sheet, leaving 2 inches of space between. You should have about 10 scones. Bake for 15-20
minutes, just until the crust is barely golden brown and the dough is dry. Remove from the oven and let cool for 10
minutes.
With a fork mix the Lemon Topping ingredients until the sugar is completely melded in. Drizzle 1 tablespoon ever each
scone.
Special Tip:
If you want to make these scones completely dairy-free, substitute soy milk for regular milk. Add 1 cup of walnuts
for crunch and texture.
