Ingredients
  

For the Scones

  • cups Baking Mix like Pioneer, Bisquick or Jiffy
  • cup milk + 2-3 more Tablespoons if needed
  • 3 Tablespoons granulated sugar
  • egg lightly beaten
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

For the Glaze

  • 1 cup confectioners sugar
  • 2 teaspoons light corn syrup
  • 1-2 Tablespoons milk

Instructions
 

  • Mix the baking mix, cinnamon and sugar together in a bowl.
  • Stir in the milk and egg just until blended. Add additional milk 1 Tablespoon at the time, if needed to make a workable dough.
  • Put the dough onto a board that has been lightly floured and sprinkle with additional baking mix. Knead 3-4 times, or just enough to ensure all ingredients are well blended.
  • Pat dough down to about ½ inch thick and shape into a circle or disc, approximately 8 inches across.
  • Cut with a sharp knife or a bench scraper into 8 wedges and place the wedges on a parchment paper lined baking sheet.
  • Chill for at least15 minutes.
  • Bake 12-14 minutes at 425 degrees, or until lightly browned on edges.
  • If glazing, let cool 2-3 minutes before adding glaze. Serve warm.

For the Glaze

  • Mix all ingredients in a small bowl until well blended.
  • Drizzle over warm scones.

Notes

  • Additional baking mix or all purpose flour can be used to flour the surface and top of the dough. 
  • Mini scones can be made by dividing dough in half and rolling each into a 5-6 inch disc and then cut into 6 wedges.
  • Sanding sugar or coarse sugar may be sprinkled on scones before baking.
  • Whole milk makes the richest scones but 2%, 1% or skim may be used.
  • Start with ½ cup milk and add a Tablespoon at the time until dough is a consistency you can work with.
