Ingredients

12 servings

•

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
•

1 cup finely ground oats
•

1 tablespoon baking powder
•

½ teaspoon salt
•

¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
•

3 tablespoons cold butter
•

2 medium apples, peeled and shredded

•

¼ cup half-and-half
•

1 large egg, lightly beaten
•

2 tablespoons vanilla-flavored maple syrup
•

¼ cup white sugar
•

¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
•

2 tablespoons butter, melted

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Lightly grease 2 baking sheets.
Mix flour, oats, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon together in a large bowl. Cut in cold butter with a pastry blender. Add shredded apples and mix to distribute. Stir in half-and-half, egg, and maple syrup. Mix until dough holds its shape but is still fairly sticky; do not overmix.
Turn dough out onto a floured board and pat into a circle about 1/2-inch thick. Mix sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl. Brush the top of the dough with melted butter and sprinkle with cinnamon-sugar. Cut into 12 wedges and place on baking sheets at least 1 inch apart.
Bake in the preheated oven until golden, 13 to 15 minutes.
