Fabulous Fig Scones

Ingredients

• 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
• 0.5 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 cups canola oil
• 1 large egg , lightly beaten
• 0.25 cups honey
• 0.25 cups white sugar
• 1 cup diced fresh figs

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly sprinkle flour over the paper.

2. 2

   Whisk flour, oats, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl. Whisk oil and egg together in a separate bowl until smooth; add honey and mix well. Mix oil mixture into flour mixture until just moistened. Sprinkle sugar over figs in a medium bowl and toss to coat; fold into dough until evenly distributed.

3. 3

   Transfer dough to the middle of the prepared baking sheet and form into a 7-inch circle.

4. 4

   Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Score batter into 8 pieces and continue baking until scones are cooked through and lightly browned on top, about 20 minutes more. Cut into 8 scones and slide every other scone back from the circle to allow cooling.
