12
ingredients
- 1 1⁄4 cups quick-cooking rolled oats
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1⁄2 cup whole wheat pastry flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1⁄2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄8 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 2 tablespoons Smart Balance butter spread, cut into small pieces
- 1 egg
- 1⁄2 cup nonfat vanilla yogurt
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
- 1⁄2 teaspoon vanilla
- 2⁄3 cup strawberry, chopped
directions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F Coat a baking sheet with no-stick spray.
- In a large bowl, combine the oats, all-purpose flour, pastry flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and 1/8 cup of the sugar. Add the butter or margarine and cut into the flour using the back of a fork until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
- In a small bowl, lightly beat together the egg, yogurt, oil, and vanilla. Add to the flour mixture, stirring with a fork just until the dough comes together. Add the strawberries and mix gently.
- Transfer the dough to a floured surface. Pat into an 8" circle; cut into 12 wedges. Place the wedges on the baking sheet. Brush with the egg white and sprinkle with the remaining 1 teaspoon sugar. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until golden. Watch them carefully, as they will get crispy easily.
- To make the strawberry-yogurt sauce: In a small bowl, stir together 2/3 c yogurt, 1 T strawberry jam, and 1 T sugar until smooth. Stir in 2/3 c strawberries.
- Serve with the scones.

Really good! I didn't have strawberries, so I used raspberries and blueberries (frozen), which worked well. I love the different textures of the oats and whole wheat flour! I also didn't have any yogurt around, but I DID have some low fat sour cream, which I used instead, and bumped up the vanilla to compensate. These were simple to make and delish! Thanks, Smelly!

I live in Knoxville, TN with DH, my beautiful son, and the most spoiled cat on the planet! I grew up in Cincinnati and landed in TN by way of Bloomington, IN and Santa Fe, NM. Needless to say, it's been a long, strange trip!!
To explain the name: I was veg for 11 years, vegan for 1. In the last year or so I started eating poultry and fish again, but my brother-in-law's nickname for me (smelly vegetarian) has always stuck.
Also...thanks a million to my Zaar fairy godperson :)!!!
