Lighter Cinnamon Chip Scones

Modified from a recipe off the back of the bag, these Cinnamon Chip scones are a perfect sweet bite!

Ingredients

  • 130 g All Purpose Flour (~ 1 cup)
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 20 g granulated sugar (1 tablespoon + 2 tsp)
  • 60 g cinnamon chips, divided (found in the baking aisle, or from amazon. 4 tablespoons)
  • 80 ml whipping cream (1/3 cup)
  • 50 g Non Fat Greek Yogurt (3 tablespoons + 1 tsp)
  • 30 g powdered sugar, sifted
  • cinnamon, to taste
  • 5 ml almond milk

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Spray a cookie sheet with cooking spray.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the all purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon chips until well combined. Pour in the whipping cream and the Greek yogurt. Combine until a dough is formed. All of the flour should be incorporated.
  • On a piece of parchment paper, lay out the dough. Knead the dough a few times, if necessary, to incoporate all of the flour. Form the dough into a 6 inch disc. Then, divide the dough into 8 slices.
  • Place each slice on the prepared pan. Bake at 375 for 15-20 minutes, or until the scones are beginning to brown. Allow the scones to cool for 10 minutes.
  • Place 30 g of powdered sugar in a small bowl. Sprinkle with cinnamon and add in enough almond milk to thin to a glaze.
  • After the scones have cooled, drizzle the powdered sugar glaze onto the cooked scones. For help drizzling, you can place the glaze in a small sandwich sized plastic bag. Clip off a small corner of the bag and use that to help you drizzle evenly.
