Cherry-Chip Oat Scones

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 15 min. Bake: 20 min. YIELD: 10 servings.
My family loves scones and anything with oatmeal. I started with my basic scone recipe and added oat flour to increase the oat taste and texture, then included special ingredients you can find in every bite. Look for add-ins that harmonize with the mellow flavor of oats. —Amy Brnger, Portsmouth, New Hampshire
