Ingredients
- 1/2 cup cold buttermilk
- 1 cup powdered sugar (sifted)
- 1/4 cup unsweetened apple sauce
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 cup dark brown sugar (packed)
- pinch nutmeg
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp cold fat free milk (plus 1/2 tbsp if needed)
- 1 large egg
- cooking spray
- 1 cup white whole wheat flour
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1 tbsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 3 tbsp chilled butter (must be cold cut into small pieces)
- 2 cups diced apples (peeled (I used Granny Smith))
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Combine the first five ingredients in a medium bowl, stirring with a whisk.
- Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
- Combine the flours, baking powder, cinnamon nutmeg, and salt in another large bowl, stirring with a whisk.
- Cut in chilled butter with a pastry blender, or you could use 2 knives, until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
- Fold in diced minced apples.
- Add buttermilk mixture, stirring just until moist.
- Place dough onto a floured surface and knead lightly four times with floured hands.
- Form dough into an 9-inch circle onto baking sheet, about 3/4" thick. Using a knife, cut dough into 12 wedges all the way through.
- Bake until golden, about 18-20 minutes, depending on your oven.
- Place on a cooling rack about 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, to make the glaze: Mix powdered sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg with 2 tbsp of milk, adding 1/2 tbsp more (1 tsp at a time) if necessary to get the consistency to the right thickness. Stir until completely smooth.
- Place scones on parchment or wax paper and drizzle the glaze over the scones using a spoon - or- place the glaze in a shallow bowl and dip the top of the scones into the glaze, then let it sit on the waxed paper to harden. Makes 12 scones.
