Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • ¼ cup white sugar

  • 2 teaspoons baking powder

  • ½ teaspoon baking soda

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • ¼ cup butter, chilled

  • 1 apple - peeled, cored and shredded

  • ½ cup milk

  • 2 tablespoons milk

  • 2 tablespoons white sugar

  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions

  1. Measure flour, sugar, baking powder, soda, and salt into a large bowl. Cut in butter or margarine until crumbly. Add shredded apple and milk. Stir to form a soft dough.

  2. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead gently 8 to 10 times. Pat into two 6-inch circles. Place on greased baking sheet. Brush tops with milk, and sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon. Score each into 6 pie-shaped wedges.

  3. Bake at 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) for 15 minutes, or until browned and risen. Serve warm with butter.
