How To make Stephanie's Raisin Scones
2 c Flour
2 ts Baking powder
1/2 ts Baking soda
1/2 ts Ground nutmeg
8 tb (1 stick) cold unsalted
-butter, cut up 1 c Raisins
2 tb Sugar
1 Yolk of a large egg
3/4 c Buttermilk or plain yogurt
1 White of a large egg
Additional sugar for -sprinkling
1. Heat oven to 375F. Put flour, baking powder, soda,
nutmeg, and salt into a large bowl. Stir to mix well. Add butter and cut in with a pastry blender or rub in with your fingers, until the mixture looks like fine granules. Add raisins and sugar; toss to distribute evenly. 2. Add egg yolk to buttermilk in a measuring cup and
whisk with a fork to blend. Pour over the flour mixture and stir with a fork until a soft dough forms. 3. Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface and
give 10-12 kneads. Cut dough in half. Knead each half briefly into a ball; turn smooth side up and pat into a 6 inch circle. Cut in 6 wedges, but do not separate wedges. 4. In a small bowl, beat the egg white with a fork
until just broken up. Brush to top of each scone with the egg white, and sprinkle lightly with sugar. With a pancake turner, carefully transfer the two cut circles to an ungreased cookie sheet. If necessary, reshape circles so that the 6 wedges in each are touching. This will keep the raisins from burning. 5. Bake 18-22 minutes or until medium brown. Cool on a wire rack. After 5 minutes pull the wedges apart and cover loosely with a dish towel. Note: Egg white and sugar can be added before freezing the unbaked scones. VARIATION: Coarse Whole-Wheat Raisin Scones: Replace 1 cup all- purpose flour with 1 cup whole-wheat flour, and add 1/2 cup miller's bran to the flour mixture. Omit nutmeg.

Like a Pumpkin Pie these Pumpkin Scones combine the flavor of pumpkin with its complementary spices (ground cinnamon and ginger). Buttermilk is used to bind all the dry ingredients together which gives the scones a bread-like texture and also helps to offset the dense texture of the pumpkin. These scones are baked at a higher than normal oven temperature which gives them a wonderfully crisp outside crust.

Stephanie Jaworski of Joyofbaking.com demonstrates how to make Gingerbread Scones. One look and you instantly know these scones are full of flavor. Molasses and ground cinnamon, ginger, and cloves give these Gingerbread Scones their earthy brown color. But it doesn't end there. They also contain rolled oats (which gives the scones a more hearty flavor and chewy texture), crystallized ginger (to add a little sweetness and heat), and some dried fruit (can use raisins, dried cranberries or dried cherries).

Irish Soda Scones Recipe Demonstration - Joyofbaking.com
Recipe here: Stephanie Jaworski of Joyofbaking.com demonstrates how to make Irish Soda Scones.
Irish Soda Scones have a golden brown crust that is wonderfully crisp. Inside they are nice and soft. For this recipe I have decided to make Scones instead of the usual round of bread. You can use All Purpose White Flour, Whole Wheat Flour, or a combination of the two flours. Irish Soda Scones contain buttermilk which has a nice thick creamy texture with a rich and tangy buttery taste that makes these scones nice and tender.
