Instructions
Scones
  1. Preheat oven to 220°C (fan forced).
  2. Line a baking tray with baking paper.
  3. In a large bowl, add flour, baking powder, sugar, salt and lemon zest. Mix to combine.
  4. Add butter pieces and toss in flour to coat.
  5. Using your hands, rub the butter into the flour mixture until it reaches a coarse meal consistency. This will take a few minutes.
  6. Add raspberries and toss to coat.
  7. Add cream and using a fork initially, toss the mixture until clumps begin the form. Toss/stir for a couple of minutes.
  8. Toss some flour onto a flat surface and tip flour mixture out of the bowl.
  9. Gently knead the mixture into one clump.
  10. Shape mixture into a rectangle, approx 20cm x 15cm and 3cm high.
  11. Move mixture onto the baking tray and cut into 6 rectangles (approx even sized)
  12. Cut each rectangle into a triangle shape so that 12 triangle shaped scones are created.
  13. Spread each scone apart to allow room to spread as it cooks
  14. Bake in oven for approx 12 minutes until pale golden.
  15. Remove from oven and allow to cool before glazing

  2. Add more icing powder as required to reach the level of consistency you are happy with.
  3. Spoon lemon glaze onto scones and allow to set.
