Have I mentioned before that we are scone lovers? It's a good thing, too, because this is the second recipe in a row for some tasty scones.As the name implies, these are chock full of oatmeal and nutmeg.
Saturday night I blended the dry ingredients and the butter together, so that on Sunday morning, I just had to add the wet ingredients and bake. Next time I will prepare them ahead and freeze them, so they can be popped into the oven at a moment's notice.
Before baking, I brushed them with buttermilk and sprinkled a bit of sugar on top.
Delicious for breakfasts or snacks!
This week's hostess was Patricia of Life with a Whisk. You can find the recipe on her website.
Once you've baked these scones, you can settle back with a cup of tea and read the stories from the other Tuesdays with Dorie bakers.

I put half my dough in the freezer for company this weekend, Scones are good food.
Darn you just reminded me I forgot to sprinkle sugar on top. I usually sprinkle the big crystals on top..oh well they were still yummy! Your scones look great! I loved this recipe and will make them again!
I like the sound of the sugar on top--I forgot to do that! I've been enjoying these breakfast recipes, but it looks like it's back to desserts. It's a tough life over at TWD.

I am a scone lover and enjoyed these too. Freezing in advance is a great idea.
Yours look really great! Mine are flatter and didn't retain their shape, but they taste good. I added dried apple to mine.
We really liked these scones too - I wish I'd thought to make extra for the freezer! Yours look delicious.
