Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
¼ cup white sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ teaspoon salt
⅓ cup margarine, chilled
½ cup currants
1 egg
⅔ cup milk
2 tablespoons milk
2 tablespoons white sugar

Steps:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease one baking sheet.
Combine the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, white sugar, baking powder, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg and salt in a bowl and mix well. Cut in the butter until crumbly and stir in the raisins. Make a well in the center.
In a small bowl beat the egg until frothy. Mix in the milk and pour into the well made in the dry ingredients. Stir to make a soft dough.
Turn dough out on to a lightly floured surface. Knead gently 8 to 10 times. Pat dough into two 6 inch circles and transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Brush tops with milk and sprinkle with sugar. Score each top into 6 pie shaped wedges.
Bake at 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) for 15 minutes or until well risen and browned. Serve hot with butter. Maple butter goes very well with these scones.

I'm not sure about the combination of cranberries and jalapenos in these scones. I think I'll stick to my usual scone recipe.

These scones were a disappointment. They were dry and crumbly, and the flavor was bland.

I've tried many spicy scone recipes, but this one is definitely my favorite. The scones are light and fluffy, with just the right amount of heat.

These scones were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. He said they were the perfect combination of sweet and heat.

I'm not usually a fan of spicy food, but these scones were surprisingly delicious. The sweetness of the cranberries balanced out the heat of the peppers perfectly.
