Raisin Vanilla Scones…. rich in butter, raisins in between soft and fluffy texture. It’s very simple recipe to do at home. Raisins is my preference, but it can be substitute with any type of dried fruit . It also can be baked as plain scones and serve it with fruit jam, chocolate toppings or syrup. Have it in a relaxing weekend with hot coffee or tea.

Prepare the ingredients as required. I used full cream milk in this recipe.  Dried raisins can be substitute with any other dried fruits or nuts. Butter – preferred to be little cold will do.

5 tablespoon of sugar, it’s sufficient.  But if you prefer the scone to be really sweet then add few more tablespoon of sugar.

Grease the tray with little butter. Use a spoon to scoop up some scones batter and place it on the baking tray, about 4-5 cm diameter each scones. Ensure to give enough space between the scone as it will rise during baking process. Brush the top with some egg yolk.

Bake the scones between 190-200 Celsius for 12-15 minutes (depends on individual oven). Bake till the bottom of scones turn slightly brown. Once baked, transfer them to wired rack and let it to cool.

Tips : Avoid to expose the raisins on the scones surface, as the raisins easily get burns during baking process. If possible push the raisins within the batter while scooping them on the baking tray.
