I made a few slight changes and they turned out excellent! I've forever been searching for a Starbuck's maple oat scone recipe that comes close because I'm addicted to the original...and these come about as close as you can get! I used good maple syrup instead of water in the glaze (ended up using at least 1/4 cup with an unsifted 1 1/2 cups powd sugar) and made sure the scones were cool when I glazed them so the glaze stayed thick on top (killed me to wait!). I actually think they're better cool after they've sat for a little while. I also substituted 1/2 cup of whole wheat flour for 1/2 cup of the regular, upped the pecans to 1 cup and added a couple tbs more cream as they were not quite as moist as I would like. I also used a food processor up till adding the pecans (just pulsed the mixture to blend in ingredients then kneaded the pecans in lightly by hand). I've made them 3 times already trying to perfect the recipe and because they are SO GOOD!!!

I made these for my Dad, who grew up in Vermont & loves anything with maple. I used quick oats, so I didn't process them since they're pretty well broken up anyway. Once the scones were cut & on the parchment-lined cookie sheet, I brushed them with some half-and-half, and sprinkled them with granulated maple sugar. After they cooled I drizzled them with the glaze too. They smelled so good that I just had to try one for "quality control" =) before I gave them away — it was awesome, and I know I will be making them again & again. Thanks for posting! -M
