Samuel Johnson used to say that oats are "a grain used in England to feed horses and in Scotland to feed the populace." As a wonderful source of calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, fibre and B vitamins, this may explain why there were so many splendid specimens of English horses and Scots. As with the Scots, we Canadians must suffer a miserable climate for several months a year, so these “horse treats” ought to do as well for us as for them. Easy to make, these sturdy oat scones are warming, filling, and just slightly sweet — and they’re just wonderful with butter and jam spread over them.
