Tender and flaky scones with brown sugar, cinnamon, plump raisins, and drizzled with a sweet cinnamon glaze. Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or an afternoon snack with coffee or tea!
Step 3. Use a pastry cutter, fork, or your hands to press and squish the butter into the dry mixture, until it resembles pea-sized crumbs.
Step 4. Add the raisins and stir to combine.
Step 5. Add vanilla extract and 1 cup of milk, and stir just until dough comes together. If dough is still really dry, add more milk 1 tablespoon at a time (you want dough that is tacky, slightly sticky, and not dry).
Step 6. Place a piece of parchment on the counter and lightly dust with flour. Turn the dough out onto the paper-lined counter and use your hands to bring it together.
Step 7. Lightly dust the top of the dough with flour and use a rolling pin to roll out your dough to make a 9-inch circle. Use a sharp knife and cut dough into 8 wedges.
Step 8. Place wedges onto parchment-lined baking sheet and brush with 1 tablespoon of milk. Bake for 20 minutes, or until lightly golden. Transfer scones to a cooling rack.
Make the Cinnamon Icing
In a small bowl, stir together the confectioner's sugar, cinnamon, vanilla extract, milk, and salt. Drizzle over scones after they have cooled for at least 15 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
