DIRECTIONS
|
|
1:
Preheat oven to 400° F. In a large
bowl stir together flour, baking powder,
baking soda, and salt. Cut
in butter until mixture is the consistency
of coarse crumbs.
|
|
|
|
2:
In a small bowl beat egg yolk with
honey and buttermilk until blended.
Add buttermilk mixture to flour mixture,
mixing lightly just until
mixture clings together.
|
|
|
|
3:
With floured hands, lightly shape
dough into a flattened ball. Roll out
on a floured board or pastry
cloth to a circle about 1/2 inch thick
and 8 1/2 inches in diameter. Using a
floured knife, cut into 8 or 12
equal wedges. Place on a greased or
nonstick baking sheet.

4:
In a small bowl beat egg white
slightly with water. In another bowl
blend sugar and cinnamon. Brush
scones lightly with egg white, then
sprinkle with cinnamon sugar. Bake until golden brown (10 to 12
minutes). Serve warm.
