½ cup old-fashioned oats
¼ cup ground flaxseed
¼ cup packed brown sugar
1½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces

Place portions of dough about 5 inches apart on prepared baking sheet. Pat each piece of dough into 6-inch round. Spray long, thin knife with nonstick spray; cut each round into 6 wedges (do not separate wedges). Brush scones with reserved buttermilk and sprinkle evenly with turbinado sugar.
