- Yield: 8 scones 1x

- 1 ¼ cups (111g) old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 ½ tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt

Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.

- Using a pastry blender, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Put this bowl in fridge.
- In a small bowl, whisk together maple syrup, heavy cream, and egg.
- Pull flour mixture bowl out of fridge and make a well in the centre. Pour in the liquid mixture and stir just until moistened. Gently fold in chopped almonds and raisins.
NOTE: This dough is wetter than a typical scone dough, in case you were wondering at this point! - Using a large scoop (such as a 2-ounce #16 disher), drop rounded blobs of dough onto prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Sprinkle tops with turbinado, sparkling, or maple sugar if you like.
- Place baking sheet in fridge for 30 minutes.
- While scones are chillin’, heat oven to 350°F.
- Bake for 25 minutes or until scones are lightly browned on top and golden around the edges.
- Enjoy scones warm or transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
