Buttermilk Scones, fresh from the oven |
Buttermilk Scones
3 c. flour
1/3 c. sugar
2-1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
3/4 tsp. salt
1-1/2 sticks butter
1 c. buttermilk
2 Tbsp. cinnamon chips
1 c. blueberries
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Cut in butter until small pieces are formed. Toss in cinnamon chips. Add buttermilk, mixing just until dry ingredients are moistened. Carefully add blueberries. Knead a few times on lightly floured board. Cut dough in half. With half of the dough, form a large ball, and gently flatten into a 6" circle with a rolling pin. Cut circle into 8 triangles. Repeat with second ball of dough. Brush with egg white, sprinkle with sugar. Bake 13 minutes, until golden. Yum!
