• 1/4 cup white sugar
• 4 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt

• 1 egg, beaten
• 1/2 cup butter, melted

DIRECTIONS

1. In a large bowl, mix the flour, oats, sugar, baking powder, salt, and currants. Make a well in the center. In a small bowl, beat egg until frothy, and stir in melted butter and milk. Pour into the well, and mix to create a soft dough. Pat dough into two 1/2 inch thick circles. Place on the prepared baking sheet. Score 8 wedges into each circle of dough.
2. Bake 15 minutes in the preheated oven, until risen and browned. Split wedges, and serve warm.

Pat into two 1/2 inch circles. Cut 8 slices.
