STARBUCKS ORANGE OATMEAL FLAT SCONES
Source: Starbucks
Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups oatmeal
1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup very cold unsalted butter, cut into small chunks
1 egg
1/2 cup orange juice
1/4 teaspoon Boyajian orange or tangerine oil or extract
1 cup raisins, plumped and dried
Glaze: milk, sugar, orange zest
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper (double two sheets if
you have them - one inside the other). Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
In a large bowl, place flour, oatmeal, sugar, salt, baking powder,
baking soda and mix together. Cut or rub in butter to make a mealy
mixture.
Stir in egg and orange juice. Add orange oil or extract. Mix to make
a soft dough. Turn out onto a lightly floured board and knead for a
few minutes.
Roll or pat out into a thickness of 1/2 inch. Using a serrated cookie
cutter, cut into disks or rounds. Brush with milk and sprinkle with
sugar and orange zest.
Bake until nicely browned - about 14 minutes.
