  • Apple Porridge Scones 🍎⁠
    ⁠
    This gorgeous seasonal take on the classic scone combines the wholesome goodness of oats and the sweet, tangy flavour of apples, and we think they are the perfect autumnal mid-morning treat!⁠
    ⁠
    We especially like to serve them with a dollop of our Blackberry Jam, and some of the fresh berries from the brambles too 😋⁠
    ⁠
    Ingredients:⁠
    – 2 cups all-purpose flour⁠
    – 1 cup rolled oats⁠
    – 1 large apple, peeled, cored, and diced⁠
    – 1 cup buttermilk⁠
    – 1/4 cup brown sugar⁠
    – 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted⁠
    – 2 tsp baking powder⁠
    – 1/2 tsp baking soda⁠
    – 1/2 tsp salt⁠
    – 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon⁠
    – 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg⁠
    – 1 egg⁠
    ⁠
    Methodology:⁠
    – Preheat your oven to 220°C.⁠
    – Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.⁠
    – In a bowl, mix the oats with the buttermilk and let them soak for about 10 minutes to soften.⁠
    – In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Add the brown sugar to the flour mixture and combine well.⁠
    – Stir the melted butter and egg into the oat and buttermilk mixture.⁠
    – Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined and gently fold in the diced apples.⁠
    – Lightly flour a clean surface and turn the dough out onto it.⁠
    With floured hands, gently shape the dough into a round, about 1-inch thick and using your hands shape into about 8 wedges.⁠
    – Place the wedges on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each.⁠
    – Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes or until the scones are golden brown.⁠
