Cranberry Oatmeal Scones

1 3/4 cup all purpose flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

3/4 cup oatmeal

3 Tablespoons plus 1 Tablespoon superfine or granulated sugar

4 Tablespoons of cold unsalted butter

1 large egg

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 cup milk

1/2 cup dried cranberries

3 Tablespoons milk

1 teaspoon vanilla

2 cups all purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Adjust oven rack to position 2. Preheat oven on Pure Convection™ to 350°. Mix flour, baking powder, and oatmeal in bowl, add cold butter and rub with fingertips until mixture resembles small peas. Stir in 3 Tablespoons sugar. Break egg into a small bowl and mix with fork; add milk. Pour egg and milk mixture into flour mixture a little at a time mixing lightly until the dough just comes together; you may not need all the liquid. Stir in cran- berries. Gather mixture and place on lightly floured surface, knead very gently just until it all holds shape. Flatten until approximately 1/2- 1 inch thick and about 12 inches round. Transfer to a lightly greased cookie sheet. Lightly score the top of the scone into 8 wedges. Brush top with any left-over egg/milk mixture. Sprinkle with remaining 1 Tablespoon sugar. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until pale golden in color. Serve immediately.

After Baking: Scones should be served warm. Cool slightly enough to handle, then continue to slice into wedges where the initial score marks were. Scones are traditionally served with strawberry jam and clotted cream, but can also be served with butter and various jams or jellies.

Makes about (8) 2” wedges.

Dacor, a renowned name in luxury kitchen appliances, has redefined the art of cooking with its innovative range of cooking products. Designed for both culinary enthusiasts and professional chefs, Dacor ranges blend advanced technology with elegant aesthetics, offering a cooking experience that is both versatile and enjoyable.

One of the standout features of Dacor ranges is their precision cooking capabilities. Many models are equipped with Dual-Stacked Burners, which allow for precise heat control from a gentle simmer to a high sear. This versatility helps home chefs create a wide range of dishes with ease. The burners are designed to deliver uniform heat distribution, ensuring that every meal is cooked to perfection.

Dacor’s commitment to innovation is evident in its use of the latest cooking technologies. For instance, the addition of the Dacor’s exclusive "True European Convection" feature in its ovens guarantees even baking results. This technology utilizes a fan in conjunction with the heating elements to circulate hot air, reducing cooking times and enhancing flavor development. This is particularly beneficial for baking, where even heat is crucial.

Another notable feature is Dacor’s sophisticated built-in Sous Vide function, allowing cooks to prepare foods at precisely controlled temperatures for hours. This method locks in flavors, nutrients, and offers an incredible level of tenderness, making it a favorite among gourmet home cooks.

The design of Dacor ranges is equally impressive. Crafted with high-quality materials, the appliances boast a sleek, modern look that integrates seamlessly with upscale kitchen designs. The intuitive controls, often equipped with touch-screen technology, provide a user-friendly experience. Whether one is a novice or an expert in the kitchen, operating a Dacor range feels natural and straightforward.

Additionally, many Dacor ranges come equipped with smart technology, allowing users to monitor and control their cooking through a smartphone app. This feature enables cooks to start preheating their ovens remotely or receive alerts when their dish is ready, adding an element of convenience to meal preparation.

Safety is also a key priority in Dacor designs. Features such as automatic shut-off, cool-to-touch surfaces, and child locks ensure that cooking becomes not only a delightful experience but a safe one too.

In sum, Dacor ranges blend luxury with functionality. Their innovative technologies, such as Dual-Stacked Burners, True European Convection, Sous Vide cooking, and smart capabilities make them a standout choice for anyone serious about cooking.
