Method
- Step 1: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Step 2: In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, chopped pecans, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Step 3: Add the cold butter to the dry ingredients and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Step 4: In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, pure maple syrup, and vanilla extract.
- Step 5: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
- Step 6: Turn the dough onto a floured surface and gently knead it a few times until it comes together.
- Step 7: Pat the dough into a circle about 1 inch thick. Cut into wedges and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Step 8: Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
- Step 9: Allow the scones to cool slightly before serving.
Notes
Make sure your butter is cold to achieve that flaky texture. If you want to add a bit of shine, consider brushing the tops of the scones with a little milk before baking.
