Print Recipe

Tender, light scones bursting with juicy raspberries and creamy white chocolate chunks, perfect for a cozy breakfast or tea time treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ½ cups (315g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ⅓ cup (65g) granulated sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup (115g) unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • ¾ cup (180ml) heavy cream, plus extra for brushing
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1 cup (125g) fresh raspberries
  • ½ cup (90g) white chocolate chunks
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
  3. Add cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Cut in the butter using a pastry cutter or forks until mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized pieces.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together heavy cream, egg, and vanilla extract.
  5. Pour the wet mixture into the flour-butter mixture and gently fold with a spatula until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
  6. Carefully fold in raspberries and white chocolate chunks, being gentle to avoid breaking the raspberries.
  7. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and pat into a 7-inch (18cm) round about 1-inch (2.5cm) thick.
  8. Cut the dough into 8 equal wedges and transfer to the prepared baking sheet, spacing about 2 inches apart.
  9. Brush the tops of each scone with heavy cream.
  10. Bake for 18-22 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  11. Remove from oven and cool on a rack for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

Keep butter cold to ensure flaky texture. Fold raspberries gently to avoid mushy dough. Brush tops with cream for a golden finish. If raspberries are very juicy, toss with a teaspoon of flour before folding in. Do not overmix dough to keep scones tender.
