Lemon Cranberry Oat Scones
Yum. Made this recipe up this morning, based on my usual scone recipe, but i goofed with the amount of oats and it was a happy mistake! i hope you like them! i should note that this is a more healthy, grainy, scone, not a buttery & flaky one - dh & i have really come to enjoy this for a more stick-to-your-ribs scone. edited nov '10 to only fresh or frozen cranberries, as the moisture is essential to the scone's texture.
