Kerrygold hot cross scones with spiced whipped butter

Serves 6-8

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 20 minutes, plus 30 minutes’ chilling time

Cooking Time 20 minutes, plus 30 minutes’ chilling time

Ingredients

For the scones:

560 g flour
2 T baking powder
1 t salt
2 t ground cinnamon
1 T caster sugar
2 t ground cardamom
250 g Kerrygold butter, cubed
3 free-range eggs
3⁄4 cup buttermilk
¼ lemon, juiced
1 t vanilla paste
70 g raisins

For the spiced whipped butter:

150 g Kerrygold butter, softened
2 t cinnamon
2 t ground cardamom
honey, for serving

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C. Sift the dry ingredients into a bowl, then rub in the Kerrygold butter with your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

2. Beat the eggs, buttermilk, lemon juice and vanilla together, then add to the flour mixture.

3. Using a butter knife, gently cut in the liquid to form a soft dough, then fold through the raisins.

4. Place the dough on a lightly floured surface and gently pat to a thickness of 2 cm.

5. Cut out rounds using a cookie cutter, then place on a greased baking tray and chill for 30 minutes.

6. Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until golden and puffed up.

7. To make the spiced whipped Kerrygold butter, beat all the ingredients using an electric mixer until pale and fluffy. Serve the scones with the whipped butter and honey.

Cook's note: if the dough is too dry, add more buttermilk one tablespoon at a time to achieve the desired consistency.
