Ingredients

  • Dough
  • 3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup cold butter
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 (10 ounce) package cinnamon baking chips
  • Topping
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Method

  • Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.
  • Cut in the cold butter, with a pastry blender, until it resembles course crumbs.
  • Stir in buttermilk until moistened.
  • Fold in cinnamon chips.
  • Knead gently (10-12 times) or until dough is no longer sticky on a lightly floured surface.
  • Cut the dough in half. Then gently roll each portion into a 7 inch circle.
  • Brush each circle with melted butter.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon for the topping. Then sprinkle the mixture onto the circles (You can add more sugar and cinnamon if you like).
  • Cut each circle into six wedges. Then separate the wedges and place on an ungreased baking sheet.
  • Bake at 425 degrees for 11-13 minutes or until lightly brown.
