I was fortunate to win a giveaway from Debbie at A Feast for the Eyes. One special part of this gift was a package of King Arthur Cinnamon Chips. I have been wanting to find a special recipe for this and I think I have.
I found the post here on CC Recipe blog. They smelled so wonderful while they were baking. I really do like those cinnamon chips. Tiny little bursts of great tasting cinnamon. As most scone recipes, this came together quickly.
Cinnamon Chip Scones
2 1/3 cups flour
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons butter
1 cup cinnamon chips
1 cup buttermilk
Heavy cream for brushing top and cinnamon/sugar mixture for sprinkling on top
Mix dry ingredients and cut butter into it. Add the cinnamon chips. Add buttermilk all at once, folding to incorporate. Knead dough gently to just hold together. Form into a rectangle approximately 3 1/2 inches by 15 inches long. Cut dough into 14-15 triangles. (I made them a little bigger and got 12).
Place on parchment or Silpat lined baking sheet. Brush with cream and sprinkle with cinnamon/sugar. Bake 15-20 minutes at 375 degrees.
I have been looking all over the place for cinnamon chips; so far no luck. It always seems to take longer to hot our shelves in northern Ontario; love scones with buttermilk. Pinning this one.

Never made a scone .. . silly me. And I do happen to have some cinnamon chips. (Sorry, Rita!)
ReplyDeleteThink I may be lucky if I can find cinnamon chips here! Diane
ReplyDeleteWhat a perfect way to enjoy the cinnamon chips. I'm so glad that you shared these. Scones are so easy to make, once you try them. They look fabulous, Susan!

I've never seen those cinnamon chips but they do sound wonderful in a scone!
ReplyDeleteSounds good and I bet these are just perfect with a good cup of coffee!
ReplyDeleteI would love one for breakfast tomorrow, I suppose that is too much to hope for! I think I've ordered cinnamon chips from King Arthur Flour, maybe need to make a new order!
ReplyDeleteI can almost smell the cinnamon coming from your kitchen. Um. Erika
