For a deeper flavor, try toasting the oats lightly before grinding. For an extra touch of richness, brush the tops of the scones with melted butter or an egg wash before baking. Feel free to substitute the currants with other dried fruits, such as cranberries or raisins. If you don’t have a food processor, you can use a pastry blender or your fingers to cut the butter into the dry ingredients.
