Maple Scones
We’re lucky enough to live on top of the best little coffee shop, called Wagamama. We’ve been in this building for so long that we know lots of the regulars and grabbing our regular order in the morning is also usually a chance to catch up with one of them. The staff are so lovely and have always been patient while we tried to teach Esme about ordering and paying. Of course now at the ripe old age of four she’s a pro but as a toddler who couldn’t even push her fiver onto the counter it was a different story. Ben and I both love their ham and cheese brioche but Esme’s favourites are the sugar scones, or “biscuits” as she calls them.
When we came back from the Shaw Farm with gallons of maple syrup I came across this recipe for maple scones and realized they’re something I never make at home because we have such nice ones right downstairs. But I loved the sound of this recipe with maple and oats – it’s a mash up of Ina Garten’s recipe and one from Heidi Swanson’s 101 Cookbooks. They were easy and fast to make with Esme’s help. They’re a great afternoon snack but also made a nice change from toast the next day. With jam, of course.
