Ingredients:
- 1/4 cups - sugar divided
- 1 3/4 cups - all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cups - quick or old-fashioned oats uncooked
- 4 teaspoons - baking powder
- 1 teaspoons - ground ginger
- 1/2 teaspoons - cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoons - nutmeg optional

- 1/3 cups - dried currants or raisins
- 2 - egg whites slightly beaten
- 2 tablespoons - molasses
- 3/4 cups - part-skim ricotta cheese
- 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.

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.
