• порції: 8 servings

Інгредієнти

½ cup (50g) instant oats

½ cup (120g) plain nonfat Greek yogurt

3 tbsp (45mL) molasses

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 cup (120g) whole wheat flour or gluten-free* flour

1 ½ tsp baking powder

1 ¾ tsp ground ginger (see Notes before beginning!)

⅛ tsp ground cloves

¼ tsp salt

1 ½ tbsp (21g) unsalted butter, cold and cubed

¼ cup + 2 tsp (70mL) nonfat milk, divided

Напрямки

Preheat the oven to 425°F, and line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.

In a medium bowl, stir together the oats, Greek yogurt, molasses, and vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt. Cut in the butter with a pastry cutter (highly recommended!) or the back of a fork until the mixture resembles fine crumbs. Make a well in the center. Pour in the oat mixture and ¼ cup of milk. Stir them together, then gradually stir in the surrounding flour mixture until just incorporated.

Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet. Using a spatula, shape the dough into a ¾” tall circle, and brush with the remaining milk. Slice the dough into 8 triangular segments with a sharp knife (but don't separate them!). Bake at 425°F for 28-31 minutes, or until the tops are deep brown and the center feels firm to the touch. Cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
