Preparation Steps
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and heavy cream.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients along with the lemon zest. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
Gently fold in the raspberries.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat into a disc about 0.75 inches thick.
Cut the disc into 8 wedges using a sharp knife or bench scraper.
Place the scones on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Let cool slightly on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack.
Notes
Serve warm with clotted cream or your favorite jam. A simple glaze made with powdered sugar and lemon juice can also be drizzled on top.
