Chris’s Raisin Scone Recipe (fruit scone)


500g | 4 cups of Plain Flour
30g | 3 heaped tsp of Baking Powder
Pinch of Salt
80g | ⅓ cup + 1tbsp of Sugar
100g | 1 stick of Butter
2 Eggs
200ml | ¾ cup of Buttermilk
150g | 1 cup of Raisins


Eggwash - 1 egg yolk mixed with a pinch of salt and sugar

Baking powder already contains an acid unlike bicarbonate of soda. So you can use either regular or buttermilk

I find that buttermilk makes them soft and fluffier.

For a sourmilk buttermilk substitute add 1.5 tbsp of vinegar or lemon juice to some full milk or milk of your choice. Stir and let it stand for about 10 minutes before adding it to the dry ingredients

Bake at 200 C / 392 F for 18 minutes (fan off)

Fan - 180 C / 356 F
