A moist and warm breakfast treat that goes great with a cup of hot herbal tea. You don't have to go to the coffee shop anymore to get a great-tasting drop scone.

  • Stir all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, oats, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda together in a mixing bowl until all ingredients are evenly dispersed.

  • Stir buttermilk, applesauce, and egg together in a separate bowl. Add to flour mixture and stir until dough is sticky. Fold in cranberries and almonds.

  • Combine sugar and cinnamon in a bowl for the topping. Drop 1/4 cup-size dollops of batter onto the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle with cinnamon-sugar mixture.

  • Bake in the preheated oven until tops are golden brown, 15 to 18 minutes.

Cook's Notes:

You can substitute white sugar for a sugar substitute, if you'd like. I use Splenda(R) for my sugar substitute, because you can bake with it and it doesn't change the taste.

Tips

I live in Colorado so the elevation is higher. I sometimes bake them a little longer than what the recipe calls for. Look for the golden brown!
