Books & Spoons Recipe for WHOLE WHEAT SCONES WITH SEEDS

Thanks for all the lovely feedback with the scones pictures I posted on Instagram, you guys are awesome! As requested, here is a recipe for the whole wheat scones with seeds. 
I love to make them instead of rolls because if the time save you have, not having to wait for the dough to rise.
Scones usually have a bit high sugar content but in this recipe, it is cut to half with what I have seen around out there. This recipe is something I have used for a long time, but it is not mine, I have just tweaked it to fit my own taste. No, it does not have raisins in it, but of course, you can add what your taste buds desire. 
I know many traditional recipes say to fold the dough when making individual scones.  I just make two big rolls and cut them into four, not all the way, but about 3/4 ways down. 
So here is a whole wheat scones recipe for you, hope you enjoy it! 
~ Cheers!
