List of Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup white sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup butter, chilled
1-1/2 large apples, peeled, cored and shredded (1 cup)*
1/2 cup milk
2 tablespoons milk
2 tablespoons white sugar

Recipe
1. Measure flour, sugar, baking powder, soda, and salt into a large bowl. Cut in butter or margarine until crumbly. Add shredded apple and milk. Stir to form a soft dough.
2. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead gently 8 to 10 times. Pat into two 6-inch circles. Place on greased baking sheet. Brush tops with milk, and sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon. Score each into 6 pie-shaped wedges.
3. Bake at 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) for 15 minutes, or until browned and risen. Serve warm with butter.
Comments from All Recipes.com:
"This has a terrific aroma and taste. These scones are perfect for tea."
"This was really quick and easy, and very moist and tasty as well. I increased the amount of shredded apples to 1 cup (about 1-1/2 large apples). I would definitely make this again."
"Fabulous scones"
"Yum"
"Needed a little more apple or something, but was still good. Smelled good."
*I adjusted the recipe because of the above recommendations for more shredded apple. The original recipe called for 1 apple. (McClug)
