| Delicious Wheat-Free Oat Walnut Scones Preheat the oven to 400 F (200 C) degrees. In a bowl large enough to hold all the ingredients, mix the dry ingredients together, then add the butter and, with your fingers, blend until coarse crumbs are formed. In a separate bowl, beat the egg with the milk and vanilla, and stir into the dough. Mix just enough to moisten the dry ingredients evenly, do not overwork or the scones will be tough. Turn the dough onto the counter/bench (for a nice touch, you can use oatmeal flakes as bench flour), and pat into a circle. Cut the dough into 6 wedges and place on a sheet pan. Bake until lightly browned, 15-18 minutes. About the ingredients: Oat and spelt flours are available at health food stores, you can use either white or whole wheat spelt flour. Blood types B and AB would do best to use cow's milk (whole is best, but others can be used), Blood types O and A would be better off with soy milk. The walnuts are optional but make a more substantial scone. Pecans also work well, and you could add raisins or experiment with other fruit. For your type: Almost all of the blood types (other than O non-secretors) can enjoy these scones. They are a little heavy for Kapha, who should probably consider them a treat. For Vatas, the oats and nuts are very grounding. |
