Cinnamon-Raisin Scones Recipe

Ingredients:

2 cups all-purpose flour
3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup raisins, half golden, half regular
1 1/4 cups heavy cream
1 teaspoon cinnamon
3 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons cinnamon  

Method:

Preheat oven to 425.

Mix together flour, baking powder, salt, sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Add the raisins.

Stir in the cream and mix until the dough holds together in a rough mass. It will be quite sticky.

Lightly flour a board and transfer the dough. Knead the dough 8 or 9 times. Form into a circle about 10 inches around. 

Make the glaze by combining the melted butter, sugar and cinnamon. Brush over the top of the dough.

Cut the circle into 8 wedges and place each wedge on an ungreased baking sheet, spacing them at least 1 inch apart. 

Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.
