Gluten Free Orange Oat Scones

Recipe submitted from jam fan Kay! “I had recently ordered some of your jams and was blown away by the vibrant fruit flavors. My husband loves scones, so I was making some for breakfast and thought about how delicious it might be to incorporate your marmalade. These scones are rich with orange flavor and spice in every bite, with a delicious jammy glaze on top. You will never know they are gluten-free!”
