I'm new to this board and just finished reading both of Heather's books. Having had IBS-D for almost 30 years, I'm so excited about the prospect of finally having a life! I'm looking forward to trying a lot of the recipes in the book, especially the breakfast breads since mornings are just the worst for me. Was wondering if anyone has a safe recipe for scones. I can't imagine there isn't a safe way to make them. Would just love to have fresh scones in the morning!
Thanks!

I don't know if this is anything like what you're looking for, but I found this at fatfree.com:
FF Banana Oat Scones
2 cups flour
2 cups oatmeal
1/4 cup sugar
1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 very ripe bananas
1 cup (about) non-fat milk - just sub soy/rice milk
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Process one cup of oatmeal in food processor until it resembles flour (maybe just substitute flour or use oatbran if you don't have a processor).
Add flour, salt, baking powder, and sugar and process to mix.
Process in bananas. (or just add the bananas mashed and mix in real good).
Put in mixing bowl and by hand, mix in rest of oatmeal (one cup) and milk (slowly) until a soft dough is formed (may need more or less milk).
Kneed lightly on a floured surface. (Note: the dough should be soft, but not sticking to your hands like crazy. You've added too much milk, kneed in more flour until you can handle the stuff reasonably.)
Divide dough into three equal portions. Form each into a ball and flatten to about 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick. Cut twice crosswise into four wedges and put on a cookie sheet. (You can make them bigger, or cook without cutting into wedges, but you may have to adjust the cooking time. Also use a coating of flour on the bottom of each scone in order to keep them from sticking to the pan)
Cook in preheated 375 degree oven for 28 minutes.
OPTIONS:
1) Add raisins, small pieces of dates, dried cherries or cranberries(probably about 1/4 to 1/2 cup).
2) Add 1 teaspoon cinnamon.
3) Omit banana, use apple sauce (about 2 bananas worth) and cinnamon instead (will probably need less milk).
4) Omit banana, use 1/4 to 1/3 cup processed/canned pumpkin, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves, 1 teaspoon cinnamon and an additional 1/4 cup sugar.
5) You can use buttermilk or yogurt instead of milk by decreasing the amount of baking powder to 1 teaspoon and adding 1 teaspoon of baking soda. May need to add some water, if using yogurt.

I found this on fatfree.com also. You'll have to make some substitutions
Scones
1-1/2 cups flour
1 cup quick oats
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 egg white or equi. egg substitute ( I used egg beaters)
3/4 cup + 2 tablespoons vanilla non-fat yogurt
1/2 cup chopped fresh or frozen strawberries or raseberries
egg beaters equivalent to 1 egg white, beaten.
1. Combine the flour, oats, sugar, baking powder, and baking soda and stir
to mix well. Stir in the egg substitute and enough yogurt to form a stiff
dough. Gently stir in the berries.
2. Form the dough into a ball, and turn onto a lightly floured surface.
With floured hands, pat the dough into a 7-inch circle.
3. Coat a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray. Place the dough on
the sheet, and use a sharp floured knife to cut it into 12 wedges. Pull
the wedges out slightly to leave a 1/2-inch space between them. Brush the
tops lightly with the beaten egg beaters.
4. Bake at 375 deg. F for 20 minutes, or until lightly browned. Transfer
to a serving plate and serve hot with the appropriate fruit spread.
