Lemon Raspberry And White Chocolate Scones Recipes

RASPBERRY-WHITE CHOCOLATE SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C).
• Line a baking sheet with a silicone liner.
• Place fresh raspberries about 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 4 hours, then turn oven off, leaving the berries inside for 8 hours, or overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with a silicone liner.
• Roughly chop dried raspberries into smaller pieces and measure out ½ cup for this recipe. Reserve any extra for another use.
• Grate white chocolate on the fine side of a grater until you have ½ cup.
• Whisk 2 cups flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder together in a mixing bowl. Grate cold butter into the flour mixture, tossing every so often to coat it with flour so it doesn't start to clump. When all butter has been added, work it into the flour with a pastry blender. Add grated white chocolate and toss with a fork to incorporate.
• Whisk ¾ cup milk and sour cream together in a liquid measure, then pour that into the flour mixture. Mix with a fork until everything just barely comes together to form a shaggy dough.
• Transfer dough to a generously floured work surface and without kneading, push and pack it together with your hands until it holds its shape, adding a little flour if it's too sticky. Press dough into a rectangle, about ¾-inch thick, and roughly twice as long as it is wide.
• Sprinkle dried raspberries evenly over the dough. Spread berries out almost to the edges and press them into the dough gently. Using a bench scraper, lift one third of the dough from one of the shorter edges and fold it in over the center third; press it down and square off the edges. Repeat with the other side so your scone dough is three layers thick.
• Cut the rectangle in half with the bench scraper, then cut each half into 2 triangles. Transfer scones to the prepared baking sheet.
• Whisk egg and 1 tablespoon milk together. Brush egg wash over each scone and sprinkle with sugar.
• Bake in the upper center of the preheated oven until browned, about 25 minutes.
• Quickly and carefully transfer to a rack and let cool completely before serving, about 30 minutes.

WHITE CHOCOLATE-RASPBERRY SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
• Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and baking soda together in a large mixing bowl. Grate in frozen butter and stir well, making sure butter doesn't stick together. Stir in raspberries and white chocolate chips. Mix in yogurt, egg, vanilla extract, and lemon zest until combined, making sure not to overmix dough.
• Place dough on a floured surface. Cut scones out using a large biscuit cutter ad place on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden, 18 to 20 minutes. Remove scones from the oven and sprinkle tops with confectioners' sugar.
• Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
• Broil scones in the hot oven until sugar melts, about 30 seconds. Remove from the oven and let cool before enjoying.

LEMON, RASPBERRY, AND WHITE CHOCOLATE SCONES

Steps:

• Zest both lemons; juice 1/2 of a lemon. Set aside.
• Combine 3 cups flour, sugar, baking powder, lemon zest, salt, and vanilla powder in a bowl, making sure ingredients are well mixed. Cut in frozen butter with a pastry blender until mixture is the texture of sand and you can no longer see pieces of butter. Place bowl into the freezer to keep cold.
• Whisk milk, eggs, lemon juice, and vanilla extract together in a separate small bowl until combined. Add the wet ingredients to the flour mixture. Stir until the dough comes together, then add the chocolate chips and raspberries. Gently form dough into a ball. Do not overwork.
• Combine 2 tablespoons flour, superfine sugar, and starch in a separate bowl and sift a layer onto the parchment paper.
• Transfer the dough ball onto the parchment paper and use your hand to flatten into a 1 3/4-inch thick circle. Place baking sheet into the refrigerator for 20 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Cut the dough into 8 triangles and separate until they're 1 inch apart. Dust with flour, sugar, and starch mixture.
• Bake in the preheated oven until they rise and become golden, 20 to 25 minutes.

RASPBERRY WHITE CHOCOLATE SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375.
• Grease a cookie sheet.
• Combine dry ingredients in a medium mixing bowl. Work butter or margarine into dry ingredients, using a pastry blender or fork, until it is the size of small peas.
• Combine milk, yogurt, egg, and vanilla in a small mixing bowl. Add dry ingredients, mixing just until the dry ingredients are moist. Stir in remaining ingredients.
• Spoon about 1/2 cup of batter for each scone onto cookie sheet. Bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown.
