Instructions:

  1. Begin by preheating your oven to a toasty 400 degrees Fahrenheit, creating the perfect environment for these scones to work their magic.

  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients – 2 cups of flour, 3 teaspoons of baking powder, 2 tablespoons of sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Let the symphony of flavors begin!

  3. Now, cut in the butter, treating it as you would for a pie crust, ensuring a perfect integration that promises flakiness and richness.

  4. Stir in the finely diced apples and the luscious raisins, infusing the dough with fruity goodness that will leave you craving for more.

  5. To achieve the desired dough consistency, add just enough water, allowing the ingredients to come together in a harmonious blend.

  6. On a floured surface, roll out the dough to approximately 1/2 inch thick, forming a delightful 8-inch circle that sets the stage for the upcoming scone magic.

  7. Cut the dough into triangles, embracing the classic scone shape, and place them on a baking sheet. Let them dance in the oven for 20-25 minutes or until they boast a light golden brown hue, signifying their readiness to be devoured.

  8. As the scones emerge from their oven waltz, sprinkle them with a tablespoon of confectioners’ sugar, creating a sweet, ethereal dust that enhances both flavor and aesthetics.

  9. Allow these heavenly creations to cool, basking in the aromatic ambiance they create.

  10. Finally, gently separate the triangles, each one a masterpiece in its own right, ready to be enjoyed with a cup of tea or coffee, or perhaps as a standalone indulgence.

These Apple Raisin Scones, born from an adopted recipe, are not just a treat for the taste buds but a celebration of culinary creativity. The delicate balance of sweetness, the warmth of cinnamon, and the fruity embrace of apples and raisins make each bite a journey into a world of flavor. Share these scones with loved ones or savor them alone – either way, they are bound to leave an everlasting impression. Happy baking! 🍎🍥✨
