Raisin And Oat Scones Recipes

LEVAIN BAKERY OATMEAL RAISIN SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Combine everything except the half-and-half until just combined. Do not over mix. (Mixture will not be creamed, just mixed together.)
• Quickly pour in 1 1/4 cups of the half-and-half while mixing quickly. If the dough appears at all dry add the remaining 1/4 cups of half & half until just combined. Again, do not over mix.
• Turn the dough out onto a very well floured surface. If the dough is very sticky, flour the top of the dough also. Pat the mixture into a layer 3/4 to 1-inch thick. Using a 2-inch diameter round cutter, cut out the scones, dipping the cutter into flour each time between cuts. Place each scone, as cut, onto a parchment paper covered sheet pan leaving 2 to 3 inches between each scone. This should make 12 round scones. (You can also form dough into rectangular shape and cut with a knife into 12 square or triangle scones.)
• Bake for about 18 minutes or until golden brown on both the top and bottom of scones.

RAISIN AND OAT SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a medium bowl, whisk together flours, baking powder, salt, brown sugar, oats, raisins, and fennel seed, if using. In a small bowl, whisk together butter, egg, and buttermilk until combined, then add to flour mixture. Stir until batter is evenly moistened (do not overmix). Drop batter by 1/3 cupfuls, 2 inches apart, onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, 15 minutes, rotating sheet halfway through. Let scones cool on a wire rack, 5 minutes.

OATMEAL RAISIN SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Grind 1 cup oats in a food processor.
• Add flour, sugar, baking powder, and baking soda and "pulse" until blended.
• Add margarine and pulse until mixture resembles a coarse meal.
• Transfer to a large bowl and add raisins and remaining oats.
• Make a well in the center and gradually add buttermilk.
• Knead dough on lightly floured surface, about 10 turns.
• Divide into 3 pieces and pat to 3/4 inch thickness. Cut each into quarters (12 scones).
• Brush with skim milk and bake in preheated oven for about 28 minutes. (May wait up to 4 hours before baking).

WHOLE-WHEAT BUTTERMILK SCONES WITH RAISINS AND OATMEAL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
• Sift together flours, baking powder, baking soda, sugar and salt. Stir in oatmeal. Rub in butter, or place in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle and beat at low speed, or pulse in a food processor, until incorporated. Add buttermilk and raisins and mix just until dough comes together.
• Transfer to a lightly floured work surface and gently shape into a 1/2-inch thick rectangle. Cut either into 2-inch circles with a biscuit cutter or into 6 squares, then cut each square in half on the diagonal. Transfer to baking sheet. Bake 15 minutes, until browned on the bottom. Flip over, bake 2 more minutes, and remove from the heat. Serve warm or allow to cool.

OATMEAL RAISIN SCONES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F. Line cookie sheet with cooking parchment paper.
• In large bowl, mix flour, oats, 2/3 cup sugar, 1 1/2 teaspoons of the cinnamon and the baking powder until blended. Cut in butter, using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), until mixture looks like fine crumbs. Stir in raisins, 1 cup whipping cream and the vanilla with fork until mixture leaves side of bowl and forms a soft dough.
• On lightly floured surface, knead dough lightly 5 times. On cookie sheet, pat dough with floured hands into 8-inch round. Using sharp knife, cut round into 10 wedges, but do not separate. Mix 2 tablespoons sugar and remaining 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon. Brush dough with 1 tablespoon whipping cream; sprinkle with cinnamon-sugar.
• Bake 24 to 26 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack; carefully separate wedges. Serve warm.

RAISIN SCONES

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine dry ingredients. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in raisins and buttermilk just until moistened. Turn onto a floured surface; knead gently 6-8 times. Pat into an 8-in. circle and cut into 12 wedges. Place 1 in. apart on a greased baking sheet. Beat egg white until foamy; brush over scones. Sprinkle with sugar. Bake at 425° for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.

CINNAMON-RAISIN OATMEAL SCONES

Steps:

• Adjust oven rack to middle position; heat oven to 375 degrees. Spread oats evenly on baking sheet and toast in oven until fragrant and lightly browned, 7 to 9 minutes; cool on wire rack. Increase oven temperature to 450 degrees. Line second baking sheet with parchment paper. When oats are cooled, measure out 2 tablespoons and set aside.
• Whisk milk, cream, and egg in large measuring cup until incorporated; remove 1 tablespoon to small bowl and reserve for glazing.
• Pulse flour, cinnamon, 1/3 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt in food processor until combined, about four 1-second pulses. Scatter cold butter evenly over dry ingredients and pulse until mixture resembles coarse cornmeal, twelve to fourteen 1-second pulses. Transfer mixture to medium bowl; stir in cooled oats and raisins. Using rubber spatula, fold in liquid ingredients until large clumps form. Mix dough by hand in bowl until dough forms cohesive mass.
• Dust work surface with half of reserved oats, turn dough out onto work surface, and dust top with remaining oats. Gently pat into 7-inch circle about 1 inch thick. Using bench scraper or chef's knife, cut dough into 8 wedges and set on parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Brush surfaces with reserved egg mixture and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar. Bake until golden brown, 12 to 14 minutes; cool scones on baking sheet on wire rack 5 minutes, then remove scones to cooling rack and cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes. Serve.
