Yummy! They do not look so beautiful when they are done, but they taste delicious! I followed other reveiwers' suggestions and added cinnamon and a little more sugar, and I used raisins instead of currants. Crumbly but delicious!

These were fantastic! Really oaty- tasting, not too sweet, and easy to make. I pressed some oats on the tops to make them look pretty. I may try raisins next time. Amazingly, they were even good after 2 days (in air-tight storage), especially warmed up in the microwave with butter and honey. My kids loved them, too, which is surprising, considering they aren't that sweet. One of the kids has an aversion to currants, tho, and picked them all out.

My husband and I really enjoyed these scones! I followed other reviewers' advice and added some cinnamon and nutmeg and a little extra sugar (maybe 1/8 cup more). I also sprinkled some oats on my board before I pressed out the dough to form the scones and also pressed some into the top. Yum!

This is a perfect "morning with coffee scone" ... actually anytime scone, and it's easy to doctor it up a little without ruining the great original flavor. Try adding a little more sugar and bit of almond extract... yum!

I love these scones, particularly with the following modifications: I use 3/4 cup whole wheat flour & 3/4 cup unbleached flour, raisins instead of currants (usually what I have on hand), and add 1/2 tsp. (or more if you like!) of cinnamon. Super easy recipe. Yumm!

Great flavor. I really liked them, but they were a little crumbly. I guess you can't expect otherwise with oats. I used dried cranberries and some of the spices others suggested. I may make some other changes next time.

We did not like these at all. They were pretty dry, and they fell apart too easy. I wont be making them again, sorry.

First of all I double this recipe as I eat a few at a time. 2nd of all I have really played around with this recipe and I just took a batch out of the oven! This so far is my favorite. Now just understand I work out a lot and try to eat as nutritionally healthy as I can. This is my tweaked recipe; I used whole wheat flour instead of white flour, I use lt. brown sugar instead of white sugar, I use 3 tbl. butter instead of a 1/2 cup and replace the rest with applesauce. I add maybe a little more applesauce because I like the moistness it offers, and lastly I don't use currants I use frozen blueberries cuz I love em!They make the scones a litte funny in color but I don't mind. I have used rice flour ick, soy flour and white together, was ok, but these wheat ones are the best! I also shoot a shot of honey in just because I like it. I have used craisins, dried nectarines, all sorts of dried fruit but I still like the frozen blueberries the best. I am sure these scones are great as is, I just try to change recipes around for my liking sometimes. This one was fun and I thank Carol for first submitting it! Jodie

Great flavor and texture. Only changes I made was substituted buttermilk for milk, and added some almond extract, and a little more sugar. Even finicky son liked this with his coffee.

This is such a versatile recipe. My favorite way to make them is to use brown sugar for the white, substitute 1/4 cup of toasted, crushed pecans for the currants, and add a teaspoon of cinnamon. Although they are just great the way they are, I love pecans and cinnamon. I've also found they only need 12-13 min. baking time.

Very good made with sweetened dried cranberries instead of currants. Maybe try a bit more flour and a bit less oats to make them a little less crumbly.

Delicious! The oats give this scone a wonderful flavor. I took other reviewer's advice and shaped the dough into balls rather than wedges. I was so happy with how they came out that I immediately made a second batch!

These were good. I think mine would have been better if I had used quick-cooking oats instead of the old fashioned kind.

Yum! I just whipped these out on a whim. They have an awesome oaty texture and a little (but not overpowering) sweetness. They are super easy and quick to make as well. I made them with a half cup of mixed dried fruit that I had left over from making Cranberry Pignoli Nut Bread. Rather than rolling the scones out, I made 24 dough balls. They turned out great after baking for 13 minutes. Definitely a 5 star recipe!

Excellent scone recipe. I added chopped fruit bits instead of just currants and shaped them into individual round shapes and at first a I was a bit worried because the dough was very sticky but they turned out fine afterall. My office mates seem to enjoy them. Thank you!

I love scones and thought these were wonderful. They're not too sweet so you can almost convince yourself you're eating something that's healthy! They're nice and crispy on the outside but the texture is quite light. I added 1 tsp. cinnamon, about 1/4 cup chopped crystallized ginger, the zest from one orange, and 3/4 cup dried cranberries. Definitely a "keeper".
