- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 cup white sugar
- 5 tablespoons salted butter**
- 1/2 cup dried craisins
- 1/2 cup milk**
- 1/4 cup sour cream**
- cinnamon sugar
- Sift the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt into a large bowl. Cut in butter using a pastry blender or rubbing between your fingers until it is in pea sized lumps. Stir in the craisins. Mix together milk and sour cream in a measuring cup. Pour all at once into the dry ingredients, and stir gently until well blended. Overworking the dough results in terrible scones!
- With floured hands, pat scone dough into balls 2 to 3 inches across, depending on what size you want. Place onto a greased baking sheet, and flatten lightly. Let the scones barely touch each other. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar. Let them rest for about 10 minutes, and preheat the oven to 400 degrees during this time.
- Bake for 10 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven, until the tops don't cave in easily when you press on them
