I'm ending the year and holidays with one last baking endeavor.
Cinnamon chip scones!
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon
- 8 tablespoons unsalted butter, frozen (I used it from the fridge not freezer.
- 1/2 cup Hershey's cinnamon chips
- 1/2 cup vanilla yogurt or sour cream
- 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- In a medium bowl, mix flour, 1/3 cup sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Grate butter into flour mixture on the large holes of a box grater; use your fingers to work in butter (mixture should resemble coarse meal), then stir in chips.
- In a small bowl, whisk sour cream or vanilla yogurt egg and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Using a fork, stir sour cream mixture into flour mixture until large dough clumps form. Use your hands to press the dough against the bowl into a ball. (The dough will be sticky in places, and there may not seem to be enough liquid at first, but as you press, the dough will come together.)
- Place on a lightly floured surface and pat into a 7- to 8-inch circle about 3/4-inch thick. Sprinkle with remaining 1 tsp. of sugar. Use a sharp knife to cut into 8 triangles; place on a cookie sheet (I used our pizza stone). Bake until golden, about 15 to 17 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes and serve warm or at room temperature.
