Scones by request

This is a wonderful recipe from my friend Susan. She calls them Scottish Oat Scones. You can use raisins or craisins or be daring and add chocolate chips! Enjoy...

Scottish Oat Scones
2/3 cup butter or margarine, melted
1/3 cup plus 1 Tbsp. milk
1 egg
1 1/2 cup flour
1 1/4 cup quick oats, uncooked
1/4 cup sugar
1 Tbsp. baking powder
1 tsp cream of tartar
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup raisins or craisins

Mix together flour, oats, sugar, baking powder, cream of tartar, and salt.
Add melted butter, milk and egg and mix just until the dry ingredients are moistened. Stir in the raisins. Shape the dough to form a ball. Pat out on a lightly floured surface to form an 8 inch circle.
Cut into 8 or 12 wedges (I usually do 8).
Bake on greased cookie sheet at 400 degrees for 12-15 minutes or until light golden brown.
These are best served warm with butter or honey.
