These scones are light yet hearty. Fresh apple keeps them moist, buttermilk contributes tenderness, and oats add a pleasantly toothsome texture.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Whisk together flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Cut in butter with a pastry blender or rub in with your fingers. (The largest pieces should be the size of small peas.) With your fingertips, flatten butter pieces into small disks. Add apples and buttermilk, stirring until dough just comes together.
- Turn out dough onto a lightly floured work surface. Pat dough into a 6-by-8-inch rectangle, and cut into twelve 2-by-2-inch squares with a floured knife. Place about 2 inches apart on parchment-lined baking sheets. Brush tops with buttermilk, and sprinkle with raw turbinado sugar and oats. Bake until golden brown, 20 to 22 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through. Let cool on sheets for 15 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and place rack in center of oven. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. In a large bowl whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Add the butter and cut it into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs. Add the oats, dried apples, and cinnamon. Mix until combined. Stir in the buttermilk and mix just until dough comes together. Add additional buttermilk if necessary. Transfer to a lightly floured surface and knead 4-5 times then pat or roll the dough into a circle about 7 inches wide and 1.5 inches thick. Cut this circle into 8 triangular sections and transfer to the baking sheet. Mix the egg and milk in a small bowl and brush over the tops of the scones. Sprinkle with coarse sugar. Bake 15-18 minutes or until lightly browned and a toothpick inserted in the middle of a scone comes out clean. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.

Tips:
- Use fresh apples: Fresh apples provide the best flavor and texture for these scones.
- Peel and dice the apples finely: This will help them to cook evenly and distribute their flavor throughout the scones.
- Use a combination of flours: All-purpose flour and whole wheat flour provide a good balance of flavor and texture.
- Work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs: This will help to create a flaky texture in the scones.
- Do not overmix the dough: Overmixing will result in tough scones.
- Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help it to hold its shape and produce a more tender crumb.
- Bake the scones until they are golden brown: This will ensure that they are cooked through.
- Serve the scones warm: Warm scones are the best way to enjoy their flavor and texture.
