Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Coat a 9-inch round pan with cooking spray. In a large bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Cut the COLD butter into the flour mixture using a pastry cutter or two knives until pea-sized crumbs of butter remain.

  2. Fold in heavy cream, vanilla, and cinnamon chips (gently!) until barely combined (some chunks of flour should remain). Turn onto a floured surface and knead 5-6 times with your hands until dough comes together. Press into prepared pan and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  3. Allow to cool for an hour in the pan, the turn onto a wire rack to finish cooling fully. If you would like to add a maple glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together confectioner’s sugar, 1 teaspoon maple syrup, and a few drops water; the glaze should be thick but pourable. Add more maple syrup and/or water to reach desired consistency. Drizzle over cooled scones; cut into triangles. These are best served warm!
