Pokyny

Preheat your oven to 180ºC/gas mark 4 and line a large flat baking tray with parchment.

Sieve the flours, bread soda and salt together into a large bowl

Add in the porridge oats.

Lightly beat one of the eggs in a measuring jug and add in the buttermilk until you have 330ml in total.

Add this egg mixture and the melted butter, that has cooled slightly, to the flour and stir everything until combined.

Lightly flour a clean work surface.

Tip the scone dough onto the floured surface and pat it to about an inch in thickness.

Cut out about 14 scones and place them onto your prepared tray.

Brush the top of each scone using the other beaten egg and a pastry brush.

Place the tray into the centre of your oven and bake for 20 minutes until they are golden on top.

Once cool enough to handle, place them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
