Apple-Cinnamon Scones
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup sugar, divided
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, divided
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons chilled butter, cut into small pieces
- 1 cup chopped peeled Granny Smith apple (about 1 apple)
- 1/2 cup low-fat buttermilk (1%)
- 1 large egg yolk
- 1 large egg white
- Cooking spray
- Preheat oven to 400u0b0.
- Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flour, 3 tablespoons sugar, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and next 3 ingredients in a large bowl. Cut in butter with a pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in apple.
- Combine buttermilk and egg yolk; add to flour mixture, stirring just until moist.
