The simplest and best berry oatmeal scones ever are these. They are so simple to make that I have been doing it since I was nine years old.

Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups rolled oats
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup white sugar

Reviews
Great versatile recipe! I’ve made this recipe as written and also added walnuts. Very good. These freeze really well, add a few minutes to the cooking time if making from frozen.
Delicious and easy. Use heaping cup of berries. I made them like drop biscuits.
I really like this scone recipe! I didn’t have a bag of mixed berries but did have some blueberries as well as strawberries in my freezer. I used 1/2 cup of each of them. I like the chew that the oatmeal gives this scone. And finally, I like that these scones aren’t overly sweet. This is definitely a scone I will make again.
There are very good scones. Like others, I needed to add several minutes of baking time at the end. I turned the oven to 400 and baked for an additional 7 minutes, after which the scones were brown and held together well.
Quick and easy recipe! They tasted great!
This is a very easy recipe that makes a wonderful scone for coffee time. I needed to add 5 additional minutes to the baking time.
