Caramel Apple Scones

🧂 Ingredients

• 3⅔ cups All purpose flour
• 2½ tablespoons Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
• ⅓ cup Butter – softened
• ¼ cup Brown sugar – packed
• 2 large Eggs
• ½ cup Milk – 2% fat
• ¼ cup Caramel Sauce + ¼ cup for drizzling
• 1 cup Granny Smith apples – peeled and chopped

Instructions

• 1 Pre-heat the oven to 425F (218C). Lightly grease or line with parchment paper
  two baking sheets.
• 2 In a large bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Add
  the butter and rub it in with your fingertips until the mixture resembles fine
  breadcrumbs. Mix in the sugar and set aside.
• 3 In a medium bowl add the milk and eggs and beat together. Place about 2
  tablespoons of the mix aside for glazing the scones later. Add ¼ cup of the
  caramel to the milk mixture and combine it all together.
• 4 Add the milk mix into the dry ingredients, then add the chopped apples and mix
  everything together until you have a soft dough. Don't over mix. The dough
  should be on the wet side.
• 5 Turn the dough onto a lightly floured flat surface and flatten it out with your
  hands to ½-¾ inch thickness. Use a round cookie cutter to cut out your scones.
  Push the remaining dough together, re-roll and cut out more scones until you're
  done.
• 6 Place the scones on the prepared baking sheets and brush the tops with the
  reserved milk mixture. Bake approximately 10-15 minutes or until risen and
  golden. Transfer the scones to a wire rack and let them cool. Top with the extra
  caramel before serving and enjoy!
