I already have several awesome recipes for scones, but I love trying out new flavor variations. I am a big fan of scones with fruit and nuts, but my kiddos prefer a more plain scone. I like to pack them with a little nutrition, so this version is filled with fiber from whole wheat, oats, and nuts. My kids were none the wiser, and gobbled them up just as fast as a plate of doughnuts. Score!

These scones have a nice sweet flavor from the brown sugar, and they are good just on their own. But of course the maple glaze on top makes them extra special!

I actually ended up having some glaze left over, but you can slather it on if you prefer.

  1. Oh my goodness these are good! They were easy to make and the texture is just right. I’m testing out scone recipes to take to a bridal brunch, and I think I have found a winner! Thanks so much for posting this recipe :)

    We enjoyed these. Slight variation on your recipe: I don’t care for nuts, so I tried this with chopped dates. Big hit!
