Cinnamon Chip Scones image

A recipe from TOH magazine that I hope to try soon, just need to remember to shopped for cinnamon chips. The author wrote this about the scones: "These scones will melt in your mouth," writes Barbara Humiston of Tampa, Florida. "They're delicious hot, warm or even cold!"

Time 20m

Yield 1 dozen, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar, divided
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup cold butter, cubed
1 cup buttermilk
1 (10 ounce) package cinnamon baking chips
2 tablespoons butter, melted

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the flour, 1/3 cup sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs(I use a food processor for this). Stir in buttermilk just until moistened. Fold in chips.
  • Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead gently 10-12 times or until dough is no longer sticky. Divide in half; gently pat or roll each portion into a 7-in. circle. Brush with butter and sprinkle with remaining sugar.
  • Cut each circle into six wedges. Separate wedges and place on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 425° for 10-13 minutes or until lightly browned. Serve warm.
