Raspberry Scone
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
- 1/2 cup of unsalted butter, cold and cut into small pieces
- 1/2 cup of heavy cream
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1 cup of fresh raspberries
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, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
- Add the cold butter pieces to the flour mixture and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup of heavy cream, 1 large egg, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Gently fold in 1 cup of fresh raspberries.
- Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and gently knead it a few times until it comes together. Pat the dough into a 8-inch circle and cut it into 8 wedges.
- Place the scones on the prepared baking sheet and brush the tops with a little heavy cream. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown.
- Allow the scones to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy the raspberry scones warm or at room temperature.
The Raspberry Scone is a beloved British pastry with a rich history dating back to the 16th century.

The best Raspberry Scones are often found in quaint English tea rooms, where skilled bakers meticulously craft them using fresh raspberries, butter, flour, and sugar. The key to a perfect Raspberry Scone lies in achieving the ideal balance of flakiness and moistness, creating a delightful texture that complements the burst of tartness from the raspberries.
