SCOTTISH OAT SCONES 
2/3 c. butter, melted (this makes batter very sticky so I just make it very soft)
1/3 c. milk
1 egg
1 1/2 c. flour
1 1/4 c. quick oats, uncooked
1/4 c. sugar
1 tbsp. baking powder
1 tsp. cream of tartar
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 c. raisins, chopped (I didn't chop, everyone can chew their own)

Add butter, milk, and egg to combined dry ingredients and mix just until moistened. Stir in raisins and shape dough to form ball; pat out on lightly floured surface to form 8 inch circle. Cut into 8 to 12 wedges, bake on greased cookie sheet in preheated hot oven (425 degrees), 12 to 15 minutes or until light golden brown. Serve warm at breakfast or brunch with butter, preserves, or honey. Yield: 8 to 10.
