Apple Cinnamon Scones

This is what I made for breakfast this morning. Apple Cinnamon Scones.

Ingredients:
1/3 c. cold butter
2.c flour
1/4 tsp salt
1 Tbsp baking powder
1/2 c. cinnamon sugar ( you will use 1/2 in the dough and the other half at the end)
1/2 c. mashed apple pie filling ( you can use a potato masher, fork or processor)

Preheat the oven to 425. If you are using a baking stone preheat it as well. Or you will have raw dough on the bottom and burnt tops. Not a pretty picture!
You can also easily double the recipe just divide the dough in 1/2 before making into balls.

Mix
1/3 c. butter (you could probably use margerine but I prefer the real thing)
2c. flour
1/4 tsp salt
1 Tbsp baking powder
1/4 c. cinnamon sugar
I use my Kitchenaid Mixer to do this but you could also use a pastry cutter/forks/knives/hands or whatever you have available.

Once the butter is all mixed in well and is crumbly add
1/2 cup of apple pie filling (mashed or run through a processor)
Mix this in and then add:
1/4 to 1/2 cup of milk, cow or soy works fine, keep the milk out you may need to adjust to get the right consistency.
You want your dough to be firm and slightly sticky.  Don't over mix it will be lumpy.
Too sticky add flour, too dry add milk.
Then on a cutting board put down some cinnamon sugar about 1/8c-1/4c.  Take your dough out and roll it around in the cinnamon sugar to coat a ball like shape. 
Flatten the Ball, sprinkle a little more cinnamon sugar on it and cut it into slices.

Place on your baking sheet/stone and cook for about 12 minutes.  Every stove is different the first time you make them keep an eye on them and note the time it takes for your specific oven and baking sheet choice. 

Serve with Fruit, our choice was Kiwi!  Let the munchkins eat! Breakfast with the cousins!
