Sunday Scones

I like recipes that allow the freedom to give them a different flavor every time I make them. With all that butter, these scones aren’t especially healthy, but they’re perfect for a special occasion.

Sunday Scones
Ingredients
- 1 ¾ cups whole-wheat white flour
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons raw sugar
- 1 stick butter 4 oz.
- ¾ cups plain low-fat yogurt
- ½ cup raisins
Instructions
- Preheat the over to 425° F. Put the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar together in the bowl of a food processor. Give it a few whirls to mix. Add butter in chunks. Mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Transfer the mixture to a bowl. Add raisins.
- Create a well in the center of the mixture and add the yogurt. Mix thoroughly until you get a thick, but not sticky dough.
- Spray a cookie sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
- Roll out the dough into a 9-inch circle on a floured surface to about ½-inch thick. Cut into eight slices and place on cookie sheet. Brush with a little more yogurt and sprinkle with a bit more of the raw sugar for a nice crunch or with some nuts.
- Bake for about 20 minutes, until browned.
