Maple Oat Nut Scones - Starbucks

I made a few slight changes and they turned out excellent! I've forever been searching for a Starbuck's maple oat scone recipe that comes close because I'm addicted to the original...and these come about as close as you can get! I used good maple syrup instead of water in the glaze (ended up using at least 1/4 cup with an unsifted 1 1/2 cups powd sugar) and made sure the scones were cool when I glazed them so the glaze stayed thick on top (killed me to wait!). I actually think they're better cool after they've sat for a little while. I also substituted 1/2 cup of whole wheat flour for 1/2 cup of the regular, upped the pecans to 1 cup and added a couple tbs more cream as they were not quite as moist as I would like. I also used a food processor up till adding the pecans (just pulsed the mixture to blend in ingredients then kneaded the pecans in lightly by hand). I've made them 3 times already trying to perfect the recipe and because they are SO GOOD!!!

Two of our sons worked at Starbucks. They are experts on Starbucks desserts. I made two substitutions as another writer suggested. I went with the 1/2 cup whole wheat flour and used 1 cup of nuts. My sons loved them.

Okay.. These are AMAZING! I love Starbucks anything... so I had to make these. I have made scones before, so I just used my usual method: I mixed everything in my food processor in the order listed and I made these for work, so I wanted more than 8. I formed the dough into a rectangle and cut it into 3 squares, then cut the squares into 2 triangles each, then cut the triangles into 2 smaller triangles. This gave me 12 mini scones and they were inhaled within about 20 minutes at work! Thanks for posting! Made for ZWT 4.

So Yummy! My mom was visiting and we both LOVE Starbucks, so I made her these scones and blended mochas at home. Terrific morning with even better food and we didn't have to leave the house! Definitely worth repeating!

I mixed up teh dray ingredients, including the maple syrup and butter in a food processor. Then in a separate bowl, mixed up the egg, cream and I used 2 tsp maple extract. Put both bowls in the fridge. This morning I mixed the two bowls together and added nuts while oven was preheating.....I also made up the glaze last night as well. These are AMAZING!!! This recipe is a keeper!! YUMM!

My wife made these for brunch this morning, and I was tickled pink when I bit into the first one. They weren't dry and the flavor just about knocked my socks off! I told her she better guard this one with her life, because we want it at hand to have again REAL soon. Delicious!!

These scones were very good! I found, though, that with the glaze you need to add a little less powdered sugar and more mapeline. It tastes even better than Starbucks! THank you for sahring this great recipe.

One of my friends used to get these at Starbucks & really missed them when they no longer carried them. So, I made these for her at Christmas & another time as a thank you. She loved them! Have also made them for my family too & we all like them a lot. The glaze really makes them great!

My dad loves scones, so I let him pick a recipe for me to make for him. He chose these and we were both very pleased with the results. The oats give them a nice texture and I love that there is an ample amount of thick glaze. Bonus is that they were super fast to make and cook. From one former Good Lookin Cookin Mama to another, Thanks Charmie! Made for ZWT 6 by an UNruly Under the Influence.

I made this exactly like the recipe and thought it was great! They were nice and moist and tasty. I haven't tasted Starbucks' version but these were very good.

These were delicious - nice texture - but definitely not like Starbuck's Maple Oat Scone. They were lacking the rich dark maple flavor and color. I have tried these twice - and I think the key will be to increase the maple extract (I am guessing to at least a Tablespoon). I found that increasing the maple syrup did not really add to the flavor - it just made them too sweet. This is a great scone recipe though.

Perfect! Followed the recipe and used my food processor and my scone pan. Put toasted walnuts in the icing. Now I can have these at home, if I only had the recipe for the mocha frapp venti-I'd have it made.

Yummmmmm! I went healthy with these and used whole wheat flour, and smart balance butter (made with EVOO) - and I choose to forgo the glaze (I know, I know) - but it was still five star worthy! Thanks!

These are very good and very addictive (for me anyway). I've never had one from Starbucks, and now I will never need to. I can probably make an entire batch, for less than they would charge for one. Thanks for a great recipe.

These were wonderful! Just a note, Nikoma. Different types of oats absorb different amounts of liquid, so make sure you adhere to the correct type. Still too dry? Substitute cake flour for the all-purpose. It's kind of a last-try attempt to moisten something, but it usually works. Also, if you whip the cream to soft peaks and fold it in, it will lighten the scone. I hope something works, because it is a good recipe. But I'm with you in that there's nothing worse than a dry scone!
