RASPBERRY SCONES

Hallonscones

8 scones

14 oz flour

1½ teaspoons baking powder

½ teaspoon salt

2.7 oz cold butter, diced

2.6 oz raspberries

2.6 oz sugar

2 teaspoons vanilla sugar

0.4 cup regular milk

0.2 cup buttermilk

1 beaten egg

For serving:

powdered sugar

cream cheese

grated lemon zest

Mix flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Crumble the butter into the mixture. Mix raspberries, sugar and vanilla sugar and blend it into the flour mixture. Lightly knead the dough to a lump.

Roll it out to a circle, about 1 inch thick, on a floured surface. Place the dough circle on a paper-lined baking plate. Mark 8 pieces with a sharp knife but don't cut all through. Brush with beaten egg.

Bake at 437F for about 20 minutes. Now it's easy to break yourself a scone or five. Decorate with some powdered sugar and serve with cream cheese and lemon.

Enjoy!
