  • Number of Servings: 8
Ingredients
Whole Wheat Flour: 2 cupsGranulated Sugar: 1/3 cupBaking Powder: 1 tspBaking Soda: 1/4 tspSalt: 1/2 tspFROZEN Unsalted Butter: 8 tbspCraisins: 1/2 cupLemon Pie Filling: 1/2 cupEgg whites: 2
Directions
1. Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2. In a medium bowl, mix flour, 1/3 cup sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Grate butter into flour mixture on the large holes of a box grater; use your fingers to work in butter (mixture should resemble coarse meal), then stir in raisins.
3. In a small bowl, Lemon Pie Filling and egg until smooth.
4. Using a fork, stir sour cream mixture into flour mixture until large dough clumps form. Use your hands to press the dough against the bowl into a ball.
5. Place on a lightly floured surface and pat into a long rectangle about 3/4-inch thick. Use a sharp knife to cut(I usually cut the rectangle so that there are four sections then across diagonally so the scones are triangle shaped.)Make sure to use plenty of flour to keep things from sticking.
Place on a sprayed cookie sheet, about 1 inch apart. Bake until golden, about 15 to 17 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes and serve warm or at room temperature.
