Cinnamon Apple Scones

2C flour
2tsp baking powder
1tsp baking soda
1/2tsp salt
1/4C sugar
1tsp cinnamon
1/3C butter or magarine
1/2C buttermilk
2sm. apples, quartered and sliced thinly

Cinnamon Glaze

1/2c icing Sugar
1/2tsp vanilla
1/2tsp cinnamon
1tsp water (or until desired consistency)

Mix dry ingredents, then cut butter into the mixture until it is crumbly. Add buttermilk into the mixture using a heavy spoon. Stir the ingredients until well blended. Fold in the thinly slices apples. Place the dough on a lightly floured surface. Press it out with your hands to about 1/2in thick, then fold it over halfway, pressing it down again until 1/2in thick, and refolding it over again. 4 times of this process works well and gives the scone a layered texture. After the forth time, use a rolling pin to gently roll the dough out to about 3/4in thick. Cut into cirlces with a biscuit cutter, place on a sprayed cooking sheet. Bake at 425F until golden brown.

Sift icing sugar if needed along with the other dry ingredients. Stir in vanilla and water until there are no lumps and a smooth glaze is formed. Pour over the scones.
