Pecan-Date Oat Scone
Makes 8 scones
Preheat oven to 425° F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pour jar contents into a bowl and stir together. Make a well in the center. Whisk together 1 egg, 1/3 cup milk and 6 tablespoons melted butter. Pour into well and stir to make a soft dough. Knead lightly and then pat into an 8-inch circle. Cut into 8 wedges and transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with a little milk, if desired. Bake until golden, 12 to 15 minutes.
Special notes:
Walnuts, hazelnuts or almonds could all be substituted for the walnuts, if you prefer.
