Delightful Honeycrisp apple cream scones featuring a gooey cinnamon sugar center. These scones are perfect for fall, made with fresh apples and a touch of cinnamon for a warm and sweet flavor.
1: Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2: Mix cinnamon sugar mixture ingredients in a small bowl.
3: Peel & cut apples into small pieces (about 1cmx1cm). Optionally, add a squeeze of lemon juice to prevent browning.
4: Sift the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a medium to large bowl.
5: Beat the cream with a whisk or mixer until you reach medium soft peaks. Fold half of the cream into the flour mixture, mixing carefully to incorporate.
6: Mix in the other half of the whipped cream gently.
7: Gently fold in the apples.
8: Lightly flour a work surface lined with parchment paper, and carefully pour the mixture onto the surface. Shape the dough into a 1 inch thick rectangle.
9: Spread the cinnamon sugar mixture onto the scone layer and fold the dough hotdog style onto itself. Freeze for 45 minutes.
10: Bake for 20-30 minutes on a parchment-lined tray until golden brown.
