ingredients

  • 4 c. all purpose flour
  • 4 t. sugar
  • 2 t. salt
  • 2 T baking powder
  • 2 c. heavy cream
  • 1 c. yellow raisins
  • 4 egg whites
  • 1/2 cup raw sugar

directions

  • 1

    Preheat oven to 425. In a large bowl sift together the dry ingredients. Gradually add enough of the cream to form a soft dough. Knead lightly on a floured board, handling the dough gently to retain the air needed for the scones to rise.

    Roll out to a 3/4 inch thickness. Cut into 2-inch rounds with a glass. Arrange on an ungreased baking sheet leaving 1/2 inch space around each scone.
