Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups all purpose flour (plus 1/4 cup for flouring the counter)
- 1 rounded teaspoon baking soda
- 2 rounded teaspoons cream of tartar
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- dash salt
- 1/2 cup cold salted butter (plus an additional 1 tablespoon)
- 1 large beaten egg
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 1 cup cinnamon chips
Glaze:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 3 tablespoons melted butter
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 1-2 tablespoons milk if needed to thin glaze
Instructions
- Refrigerate a metal bowl for 5 minutes to get it cold.
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
- In the refrigerated bowl, add the flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, sugar and salt. Cut the cold butter into small cubes and add to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter, cut the butter in with the flour mixture until the butter is mostly mixed in. It is okay if there are small pieces of butter.
- Make a well in the flour, in the center of the bowl. Add the egg and buttermilk to the well. Using a wooden spoon, mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix just until blended, being careful not to overmix. Fold in the cinnamon chips.
- Put about 1/4 cup of flour on the cupboard. Turn the dough out onto the floured counter. Turn it over so the floured side is up. Make a disk that is about 1 1/4 inches thick. Use a knife to cut the disk into 8 triangles, as if you were cutting a pie. Place the scones on a greased cookie sheet, or a nonstick baking mat.
- Bake immediately for 12 minutes. Allow the scones to cool for 3-5 minutes and prepare the glaze.
- In a small bowl, melt the 3 tablespoons of butter. Add in the powdered sugar and vanilla. Mix well. If needed, add 1-2 tablespoons of milk in order to easily spoon the glaze over the scones.
- Glaze the top of the scones. The glaze will run over the sides of the warm scones.
