These Copycat Starbucks Maple Oat Nut Scones are buttery, oat-packed, and topped with a sweet maple glaze. Easy to make at home and better than the bakery!

Ingredients 

For the Scones

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, optional
  • ½ cup butter, 1 stick cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • ¾ cup pecans, chopped
  • cup heavy cream, plus 1–2 tablespoons if needed, cold
  • 1 large egg
  • 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • teaspoons maple extract
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Maple Glaze

  • cups powdered sugar
  • 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon maple extract
  • 2 tablespoons milk, or heavy cream

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (205°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
  • Cut in the cold cubed butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with pea-sized bits. Stir in the chopped pecans.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, egg, maple syrup, maple extract, and vanilla.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and stir gently until just combined. Add extra cream a tablespoon at a time if the dough is too dry.
  • Turn the dough onto a floured surface, pat into a 1-inch-thick circle, and cut into 8 wedges.
  • Place wedges on the baking sheet 2 inches apart. Bake 18–22 minutes, until golden and a toothpick comes out clean. Cool 5 minutes on the pan, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Whisk together the powdered sugar, maple syrup, and maple extract, adding milk until thick but pourable. Drizzle over cooled scones and let set 10 minutes before serving.

Equipment

  • Baking Sheet
  • Parchment Paper
  • Large Mixing Bowl
  • Pastry cutter
  • Wire cooling rack

Notes

  • Keep all ingredients cold for the flakiest texture.
  • Don't overmix — stir until the dough just comes together.
  • Toast the pecans first for deeper flavor.
  • Glaze only fully cooled scones so it doesn't melt off.
  • Freeze unbaked wedges and bake from frozen, adding 3–5 minutes.
