Raisin Scones

my homemade Raisin Scones

2 cups flour
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 cup butter ( scant )
1 egg, beaten
2/3 cup milk
3/4 cup raisins

In large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt and baking powder. Stir to blend. Add raisins. Cut in butter. In small bowl combine milk and beaten egg. Add to flour mixture and stir with fork to mix all together.

Pat into greasing baking pan, using a little flour to pat it out to the edges of the pan. I use a pizza pan.
Cut into 8 triangle wedges. Bake in preheated oven at 375 F for 15 -20 minutes until golden.

Serve warm along side a stew or soup for lunch or supper or for breakfast with your morning coffee.
