Equipment

Ingredients

For the raisin scones:

  • ¾ cup all purpose flour
  • ⅛ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ cup raisins
  • ½ cup heavy cream (cold)

For the topping:

  • 1 Tablespoon butter
  • ½ Tablespoon turbinado sugar

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Line a small baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • In a stand mixer bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and cinnamon.
  • Stir in the raisins.
  • Mix in the heavy cream. Let the mixer run on low to knead gently until a soft dough forms, about 2 minutes. Add in small amounts of flour or heavy cream if needed. You don’t want the dough to be too dry or too sticky.
  • On a cutting board, form a ball with the dough. Pat it into a circle about 1 inch thick.
  • Cut the circle into 4 triangles.
  • Place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  • Melt the butter and brush the tops generously.
  • Sprinkle with the turbinado sugar.
  • Bake for 20 minutes until lightly browned. Serve warm or at room temperature.
