Raisin Scones

Ingredients

• 225 g flour
• 1 tsp Baking powder
• 1 tsp sugar
• 0.5 tsp Salt
• 50 g softened butter
• 100 g yogurt
• 2 tbsp raisins
• 1 egg yolk
• 150 g clotted cream
• 150 g jam (optional)
• flour (for working)

Instructions

1. 1.

   Preheat the oven to 200°C fan-forced. Knead the flour with baking powder, sugar, salt, softened butter and yogurt into a smooth dough that no longer sticks strongly. Fold in the raisins. On a floured work surface roll out about 2 cm thick and cut hexagonal pieces (≈5 cm diameter) with a cookie cutter.

2. 2.

   Brush with whisked egg yolk and bake in the hot oven for about 15 minutes until golden brown (do the toothpick test!). Remove and cool on a wire rack.
