List of Ingredients
2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 cup cold butter
1 egg, separated
3 tablespoons honey
1/3 cup buttermilk

Recipe
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a large bowl, stir together
flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Cut in butter
until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In small bowl, beat
egg yolk with honey and buttermilk until blended; add to flour
mixture, blending until the mixture clings together. Do not over
mix! With floured hands, lightly shape dough into flattened ball.
Roll out on floured surface into a circle 1/2 inch thick. Using a
floured serrated knife, cut into 8 to 12 wedges. Place on greased
baking sheet or an ungreased baking stone. In a small bowl,
lightly beat egg white with water. In another bowl, blend sugar
and cinnamon. Brush scones lightly with egg white, then sprinkle
with cinnamon sugar. Bake until golden (10 to 12 minutes).
Serve warm. Makes 12 scones.
