Jane Austen's Scones

I have had my The New Best of Betterbaking.com for only a week now and already I have made about four things out of it and all of them have been a success. We seemed to have a plethora of whipping cream and buttermilk in the fridge, but no eggs, so muffins it wasn't and scones it was. I made a half batch of Jane Austen's Rolled Oat and Golden Raisin Scones, substituting buttermilk for the light cream. They came together quite quickly and puffed nicely in the oven. Although the only sugar in them is brushed on top at the end the result was a moist, tender, and wholesome treat that would be perfect with tea and some Sense and Sensibility. Now that we actually have eggs I will be baking some muffins and cookies next.
