British oat scones
Description
The recipe won't take much time. Scones are a traditional part of an English tea time. They are usually served with butter and jam. They are very quick to prepare, even faster than cookies or pies. I really liked these scones: the dough is excellent and the taste is great too. Not to mention that my child, who doesn't like oatmeal porridge, got a bit of healthy oats without even noticing :) Serve warm or chilled. Perfect with tea.
