Cinnamon Sugar Scones

Yet another scone recipe! I used this scone recipe to experiment with making a sweet scone!



Here's the recipe:

Cinnamon Sugar Recipe

2 T cinnamon
1 c sugar
scones

Mix cinnamon and sugar together (you might want to add a little more of one or the other to make it the mixture that you want). Put half the mixture on a plate and leave the other half in a bowl.

Make scones (recipe here) and roll each one of them in the cinnamon sugar mixture. Use the mixture from the bowl to sprinkle over both sides. Place on paper towels. Enjoy!

Another recipe that you could try with these scones is Navajo Tacos, found here.

What are some things that you like to have on your scones??

Navajo Tacos



I just barely did the post about the scone dough recipe, so here is the recipe for Navajo Tacos. This is such a simple meal, but oh so delicious and surprisingly filling!

Navajo Tacos

1 lb ground beef
1 can refried beans
Shredded cheese
Sour cream
Guacamole
Salsa/Hot Sauce
Lettuce
Tomatoes

Brown the ground beef (can add taco seasoning if desired). Warm the beans in a pan on the stove. Prepare all other ingredients. Top your scone (recipe found here) with desired ingredients and enjoy!



Is that easy enough for you??
Sometimes to save a little more time I will just warm up a can of Chili, but I like it better with the ground beef and beans!


Quick Scone Dough

I love scones for many reasons-the main being Navajo Tacos! You can also put honey, cinnamon sugar, jam, honey-butter, and much more on these for a delicious treat.

This is my go-to recipe for scone dough.
It takes very little time and you don't have to wait for the dough to rise.

Scone Dough

2 cups flour
1 T baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 cup milk
oil/shortening for frying

Mix the flour, baking powder and salt.

Add the milk and mix until the dough comes together. Add flour if needed. Knead for about 5 minutes until dough forms a ball and is smooth. Let rest for 5 minutes. Heat about 1 inch of oil in a medium-large skillet. Break off pieces of the dough in desired size and then roll out flat or stretch with your hands. Make the middle a little bit thinner than the outsides.
I doubled the recipe this time and got about 12 scones!

Fry in the oil until brown on both sides (you'll have to flip them to get both sides brown). Let drain on paper towels. This recipe makes about 5-6 scones.

There you have it! An easy Scone Dough recipe
