    Traditional Raisin Scones


    Source of Recipe


    Recipe courtesy Paula Deen

    List of Ingredients




    3 cups all-purpose flour
    1 tablespoon baking powder
    1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
    1/4 cup, plus 2 tablespoons sugar
    3 large eggs
    1/3 cup buttermilk
    1/2 cup raisins

    Recipe



    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
    Sift together the flour and baking powder. In a separate bowl, beat the butter until creamy. Add the 1/4 cup sugar, beating until pale and fluffy. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, then add the flour mixture and the buttermilk. Sprinkle the raisins over the dough and gently fold them in. Using an ice-cream scoop, place mounds of dough on a baking sheet and sprinkle with the remaining sugar. Bake for 20 minutes. Serve the scones warm, with softened butter and preserves.
