Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice.
- Cut the chilled butter into small cubes and blend into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- Pour in the half-and-half and vanilla extract, stirring until just combined.
- Gently fold in the grated carrots and raisins (or nuts) into the dough.
- Shape the dough into a circle about 1 inch thick and cut into wedges or use a biscuit cutter.
- Transfer scones to the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes until lightly golden.
- Prepare the glaze by whisking cream cheese, maple syrup, and heavy cream until smooth.
- Once scones have cooled slightly, drizzle the glaze over them and serve.
