Who said dessert can’t be healthy? This has all whole wheat organic grain and less fat milk, and it comes together in less than 45 minutes.
1. Preheat oven to 400 F.
2. Place oats in a food processor. Process until finely ground.
3. Add flours, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and allspice to a food processor. Pulse 3 times.
4. Add butter; pulse 5 times until mixture resembles coarse meal. Be very careful—don’t over beat.
5. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla and sour cream; pulse 3 times or just until combined (DO NOT over-mix). If you’re afraid you might over-mix, you can transfer the mixture into a big bowl and add sour cream and vanilla. Use spatula to mix. If you over-mix, the mixture will be too runny.
6. Add cranberries and nuts. Use a spatula to mix well.
7. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; knead lightly 3 times. Roll dough to a 1/2-inch thickness; cut with a 2 1/2-inch biscuit cutter.
8. Place cut dough on a baking sheet. Use a watermelon scoop or small round spoon to press in the middle of each cut dough to make a half hole for raspberry jam.
9. Mix together jam and the remaining vanilla extract.
10. Add 1/2 teaspoon of jam into a hole. Don’t overfill it, otherwise it will run all over the scone.
11. Bake for 14 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the baking sheet; transfer to a wire rack.
12. While they’re cooling, combine powdered sugar and milk. Stir with a whisk until smooth. Drizzle the glaze evenly over the scones.

I love how little butter and cream this recipe calls for–a far cry from most scone recipes. Sour cream is a great idea! Thanks for sharing! I will be making these soon!
