Light Pumpkin Oat Scones


An experiment.

Steps


# preheat oven to 400 degrees.
# prepare baking sheet by sparying lightly with cooking spray.
# in a large bowl , combine the the flour , oatmeal , sugar , baking powder , baking soda and salt.
# cut in the margarine until the mixture resembles course meal.
# add the pumpkin , vanilla and yogurt into the flour mixture and mix thoroughly.
# knead the dough on a lightly floured surface just until it can be shaped.
If the dough is too sticky add a little more flour but take care not to add too much as it toughens up the scones.
Similarly , over kneading the dough also diminishes the final result.
# place the dough ball on the baking sheet and spread out into disk.
Cut into 6 wedges.
# bake the scones 20 - 22 minutes.
