RAISIN SCONE CALORIES RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°.
• Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flour and next 4 ingredients in a bowl; cut in butter with a pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in raisins.
• Combine 1/2 cup milk and egg; add to flour mixture, stirring just until moist. (Dough will be sticky.)
• Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; knead lightly 4 or 5 times with floured hands. Pat dough into a 7-inch circle on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Cut dough into 10 wedges, cutting to, but not through, bottom of dough. Brush with 1 tablespoon milk; sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
• Bake at 375° for 18 to 20 minutes or until golden. Serve warm.

Steps:

• 1. Make the scones: In a liquid measuring cup, whisk the eggs, vanilla extract and heavy cream until smooth. In a large bowl, whisk the flour, sugar, salt and baking powder until well combined. 2. Using a coarse Microplane or box grater, grate the cold butter over the flour; add the raisins, pistachios and orange zest and stir until well coated in flour with no large clumps of butter. Pour the egg mixture over the dry ingredients and use a silicone spatula to stir just until the mixture comes together and forms a rough dough, ensuring there are no large pockets of dry flour. 3. Transfer the dough to a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet. Pat the dough into an 8-inch circle about 1-inch thick. Chill until the dough is firm, at least 1 hour and up to 2 days. (If chilling for longer than 1 hour, cover tightly with plastic wrap.) 4. Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 425?F. Using a bench scraper or sharp knife, cut the chilled dough into 8 wedges. Arrange the wedges on the baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Brush the surface of each scone with heavy cream and sprinkle with turbinado sugar (if using). Bake until the scones are golden brown, 18 to 25 minutes. Cool the scones on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. 5. Make the glaze: In a medium bowl, whisk together the confectioners' sugar, salt, orange zest and heavy cream; it should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon (adjust the consistency as needed with more confectioners' sugar or half-and-half). Drizzle the glaze over the cooled scones and let sit until fully set.
