It's been too long since I've made some...hmmm. Here's my favorite version (with both oatmeal and half & half) adapted from Cook's Illustrated and via Cookie Madness: http://www.aminglingoftastes.com/2007/12/cinnamon-oat-scones.html. I usual like the buttermilk variety, but these rocked! Scones are one of my baking loves. It’s been too long since I’ve made some…hmmm.
