Instruction tip
Cooking tip:
No ovenproof frying pan? You can use a 2L (8-cup capacity) baking dish instead.

Method

Step 1 of 4

To make scone mixture, process flour, baking powder, mixed spice and butter until coarse crumbs form. Add buttermilk, in a thin stream, with motor operating, until combined. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead and shape into a 15cm disc. Cut into quarters. Place a slice of cream cheese on top of 3 of the quarters. Pile the 3 pieces on top of each other, ending with the remaining fourth quarter of dough on top. Squash down using the palm of your hand.

Step 2 of 4

Shape dough into a 16x24cm (2cm-thick) rectangle. Brush with melted butter and sprinkle with demerara sugar. Cut into 12 squares. Transfer to a baking tray and freeze for 20 minutes. Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced.

Step 3 of 4

Meanwhile, combine raspberries, rhubarb, caster sugar, honey, orange juice and zest in a large ovenproof frying pan. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Simmer for 10-12 minutes or until bubbling and beginning to thicken. Blend cornflour with 1 1/2 tbs water, then gradually stir into pan. Cook, stirring, for 1-2 minutes or until mixture thickens.

Step 4 of 4

Top raspberry mixture with scones. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the scones are golden and the rhubarb mixture has thickened. Serve topped with ice-cream.
