How to Make Rosemary Citrus Scones

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup rolled oats, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 tablespoon finely grated orange peel, 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh rosemary, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup milk, 1/4 cup vegetable oil, and 1 large egg.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients all at once. Stir gently with a fork just until the dough is moistened. Do not overmix.
  5. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently 8-10 times. Be careful not to overwork the dough.
  6. Pat or gently roll the dough into an 8-inch circle, about 3/4 inch thick.
  7. Cut the circle into 12 equal wedges using a sharp knife or pizza cutter.
  8. Carefully transfer the scones to the prepared baking sheet.
  9. Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown.
  10. Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  11. Serve warm with your favorite spread, such as butter, jam or cream cheese.
