How to Make Amazing Cinnamon Chip Scones
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gradually stir in the buttermilk until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Gently fold in the cinnamon chips.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently for just a minute or until the dough is no longer sticky.
- Divide the dough in half.
- Roll each half into a 7-inch circle on a lightly floured surface.
- Brush each circle with melted butter.
- In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon for the topping.
- Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over both circles.
- Cut each circle into 6 wedges.
- Carefully separate the wedges and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 11-13 minutes, or until the scones are lightly golden brown.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
