Cinnamon Honey Scones

This recipe has been part of our family since the boys were very, very young.  It comes from their very own cookbook, "My First Cookbook" by Rena Coyle.  The original recipe  includes all the special instructions a child requires (have Mom put the oven at 350 degrees. . .put the oven mitts on. . .)

I'm assuming that everyone already knows all the safety rules about baking, so I'm going to cut it down to the basics:

Cinnamon Honey Scones

1 3/4 c. flour

1 1/2 tsp. baking powder

1/2 tsp. cinnamon

6 T. butter, room temperature

1 tablespoon honey

1/2 cup milk

1 egg

Mix all dry ingredients together.  Add butter and mix together with fingers.  Add honey, egg, and milk.

Drop by large soupspoons-ful.  Bake at 450 degrees for 15 minutes, or until golden brown.

Serve warm with butter and honey. 

Makes about 8 scones.

Oops - room temperature butter - I guess it will be for mid-morning snack :)
