Banana Nut Scones image

I made these up this morning when we were looking for a different flavour of scone for breakfast - and well, the very ripe bananas were calling me! I went easy on the sugar in the scones, and I sprinkled the top with Turbinado Sugar and oats to mimic a cruchy topping. These are not your typical buttery scones, but hearty, healthy, and hold you till lunch scones! If you don't have cinnamon chips, add a tbsp brown sugar, or you might wish to add raisins or chocolate chips, if you like your banana bread that way. This is my basic scone formula - I just change up the fruit and nuts to keep it interesting!

Time 30m

Yield 4 Scones, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup oatmeal, preferably large flake but quick oats will work
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1 tablespoon brown sugar, packed (optional)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon oil
1 banana, ripe, mashed
1/4 cup cinnamon baking chips
1/4 cup walnuts, chopped
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/3 cup milk (or more, if necessary)
turbinado sugar or demerara sugar, for sprinkling on top
oats, for sprinkling on top

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400.
  • Mix dry ingredients together (oatmeal, flours, baking powder, cinnamon). Stir oil into dry ingredients well. Add cinnamon chips and walnuts and stir. In a clear measuring cup, add mashed banana, milk to 3/4 cup (banana plus milk should equal 3/4 cup), and vanilla. Combine wet and dry ingredients; stir until the dry ingredients are damp.
  • Drop dough onto parchment paper lined or greased baking sheet, and form into a 5" diameter circle. Cut into four triangles - it's ok to leave them in a circle. Sprinkle with oats and sugar.
  • Bake at 400 for 20 minutes, until lightly browned.

I'm not a big fan of scones, but these were actually really good. They were moist and flavorful, and the banana and nut flavors were a nice combination.

I've tried many banana nut scone recipes, but this one is by far the best. The scones are light and fluffy, with just the right amount of sweetness. I love the addition of walnuts, which gives them a nice crunch.

These scones were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would add a little more butter or milk next time.

I made these scones with chocolate chips instead of walnuts and they were amazing! The scones were still moist and fluffy, and the chocolate chips added a nice sweetness.

These scones were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add a little more sugar or spices next time.
