Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375F.

Make the filling: using a small bowl mix together the butter, brown sugar and cinnamon.

Make the dough: using a large bowl whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt, work the butter pieces in with your fingertips until the mixture is crumbly (don't over mix), add the raisins, then add the half-and-half, stirring until just moistened.

Make the icing: Using a small bowl mix the powdered sugar with the milk until smooth. Drizzle over the scones, serve warm or at room temperature.

Patti, this is a brilliant idea to combine scones and cinnamon tolls, very yummy looking too. Have a lovely Thanksgiving!

As I was reading your post, all I could think about was, making a gluten-free version of these amazing looking cinnamon roll scones! Not sure it’s possible, since gluten-free dough is so sticky, but perhaps I could make a regular batch of GF scones and spread some cinnamon filling on top

Patty~ WOW, these cinnamon roll scones are stunning~~ what a great idea! I need to make these soon!

Patty, These are absolutely gorgeous! I make scones all the time and Ireally love eating cinnamon rolls, so the fact this is a two-in-one is so cool. John will love these. The best part is thst I have all the ingredients.

These are so gorgeous Patty! They combine two of my favorite treats….cinnamon rolls and scones! Perfect for the holiday table! Wishing you and your family the Happiest of Thanksgivings!

I’m a huge scone fan who has not yet made cinnamon rolls. My children had asked me to make cinnamon rolls many times… I think I’ll make these cinnamon roll scones instead – it’s win win!!!
