Scottish Oat Scones

Scottish Oat Scones Recipe

I got this recipe about 15 years ago from The Scottish Lion, a country inn in North Conway, NH - alas, the inn no longer exists. I asked for the recipe when I checked out, and they handed it to me on a pre-printed sheet .... turns out everyone wanted the recipe after having them at breakfast.
