Ingredients

3 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
⅓ cup white sugar
⅓ cup packed brown sugar (light or dark)
2 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¾ cup cold unsalted butter, cut in small pieces
1 cup buttermilk
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
¾ cup cinnamon chips

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
Whisk flour, both sugars, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, and nutmeg together in a large bowl. Cut in butter using the bread hook attachment of an electric mixer until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add buttermilk and vanilla, mixing just until dough is moistened; fold in cinnamon chips.
Drop 1/4 cups of dough 2 inches apart onto a cookie sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, 15 to 17 minutes.
