How to Make Apple Cinnamon Scones
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a baking sheet.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Cut in 1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in 1 cup peeled and diced apples and 1/2 cup chopped walnuts.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup milk and 1 large egg yolk.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead a few times.
- Roll the dough to 1/2 inch thickness.
- Use a 3-inch round cookie cutter to cut out scones.
- Place scones 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
- In a small bowl, beat 1 large egg white until foamy.
- Brush the egg white over the tops of the scones.
- In a small bowl, mix 1 tablespoon granulated sugar with 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the scones.
- Bake for 20-22 minutes, or until golden brown and firm to the touch.
- Remove from baking sheet immediately and let cool slightly before serving warm.
