Time 38m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup sugar
4 tablespoon cold, unsalted butter, cut into 1/2'' pieces
3/4 cup fresh raspberries
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1 egg white
2 tablespoon raw sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425° F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, stir together flours, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
  • With a rigid pastry cutter, cut in butter until mixture resembles a coarse meal with larger pea size pieces. Add raspberries and fold gently to coat. Make a well in the center and then add buttermilk and egg. Stir just until combined, taking care to not over mix. The dough will be very soft.
  • Put a bit of flour in a bowl and coat your hands. Gently knead the dough 2 or 3 times, right in the bowl, coating your hands with additional flour as needed. The dough will be very loose. Using a large scoop, transfer scones to prepared pan, dividing into 9 equal portions in big rounded scoops. It works best to slightly compress the dough into the scoop using the side of the bowl, so the dough is compact.
  • Brush tops of dough with egg white and sprinkle generously with raw sugar. Bake until scones are golden brown, about 13 minutes. Let cool on pan for 5 minutes and then remove to a wire rack. Serve slightly warm or at room temperature.

Time 45m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups (275g) whole wheat flour
⅓ cup (50g) sugar
½ tsp baking soda
2 tsp baking powder
Zest of 1 lemon (~2 tsp)
½ cup (1 stick or 115g) butter, cold
1 egg
½ cup plain low fat yogurt (could use Greek for extra protein)
¼ cup 1% milk
½ cup raspberries, fresh or frozen
1 tsp milk
1 tsp brown sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375F (180C).
  • Mix the flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and lemon zest in a large bowl.
  • Cut the butter into small chunks, add it to the dry ingredients, and cut it in with a pastry blender (or rub it in with your fingers until it resembles fine breadcrumbs).
  • Whisk together the egg, yogurt, and milk, and stir into the dry mixture until a dough forms.
  • Gently fold in the raspberries.
  • Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface, and briefly knead. If the dough is too wet, add a little extra flour while kneading.
  • Pat the dough into a flat disk about 2 inches thick and cut into wedges.
  • Transfer the dough to a parchment-lined or lightly greased baking sheet.
  • If you want crispier scones, separate the wedges a little. If you prefer them soft, leave them touching one another.
  • Brush the tops of the scones with the 1 tsp mlk.
  • Sprinkle with 1 tsp brown sugar.
  • Bake in the oven for 25 minutes, or until light golden brown.
  • Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack.

  • 2. Use a wooden spoon to mix in the brown sugar and raisins, and then add the buttermilk. If the dough is quite sticky, add more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough has the texture of modeling clay. If it's too dry, add more buttermilk, 1 tablespoon at a time, until it's wet enough.
  • 3. Turn the dough out onto a floured work surface and roll it out into a rectangle 1/4 inch thick. Cut the dough into 12 (3-inch) squares. Leftover scraps can be rerolled to make more scones.
  • 4. Oil a baking sheet. Fold each square of dough in half diagonally to form a triangle, and lay it on the sheet. Bake the scones until the tops are golden brown, about 30 minutes. Serve warm, with jam and a pot of hot tea if you like.
