Ingredients:

  1. 1/4 cups - sugar divided
  2. 1 3/4 cups - all-purpose flour
  3. 3/4 cups - quick or old-fashioned oats uncooked
  4. 4 teaspoons - baking powder
  5. 1 teaspoons - ground ginger
  6. 1/2 teaspoons - cinnamon
  7. 1/4 teaspoons - nutmeg optional
  8. 1/8 teaspoons - ground cloves
  9. 1/3 cups - margarine
  10. 1/3 cups - skim milk
  11. 1/3 cups - dried currants or raisins
  12. 2 - egg whites slightly beaten
  13. 2 tablespoons - molasses
  14. 3/4 cups - part-skim ricotta cheese
  15. 2 tablespoons - frozen lemonade concentrate thawed

Directions:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Reserve 1 teaspoon sugar; combine remaining sugar with flour, oats, baking powder and spices, mixing well. Cut in the margarine until crumbly.

Combine milk, currants or raisins, egg whites and molasses; add to dry ingredients, mixing until just moistened.

Turn out onto lightly floured surface; knead gently 5 to 10 times. Pat dough to 3/4-inch thickness. Cut with 2-1/2 inch heart-shaped or round biscuit cutter.

Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Sprinkle tops with reserved sugar. Bake 9 to 11 minutes or until golden brown.

Meanwhile, place ricotta and lemonade concentrate in blender or food processor. Cover and blend on high speed or process until smooth. Serve with warm scones.
