Cinnamon Raisin Scones
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 2 cups of all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup of granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon of baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup of unsalted butter, cold and cut into small pieces
- 1/2 cup of raisins
- 1/2 cup of milk
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups of flour, 1/3 cup of sugar, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon.
- Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in 1/2 cup of raisins.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup of milk, 1 large egg, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until the dough comes together.
- Transfer the dough to a floured surface and gently knead it a few times until it holds together. Pat the dough into a circle about 1 inch thick.
- Cut the dough into 8 wedges and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown and cooked through.
- Allow the scones to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
