Like apple pie for breakfast. Great with Earl Grey Tea.

Ingredients

2 C. all-purpose flour
1/4 C. granulated sugar
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 C. cold butter
1/2 C. apples, shredded
1/2 C. milk

Directions

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Measure the flour, sugar, baking powder, soda, and salt into a large bowl. Cut in the butter until crumbly. Add the apple and milk. Stir to form a soft dough. Turn out onto lightly floured board; knead gently 8 to 10 times. Do not overmix or knead longer! Pat into two 6-inch circles. Place on a greased baking sheet. Brush tops with milk; sprinkle with granulated sugar and cinnamon. Shape each round into six pie-shaped wedges. Bake for 15 minutes or until browned. Serve with warm butter and honey or jam.
