Preparation Steps
1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
2
Dice the cold butter and cut it into the flour mixture using a pastry blender or your fingers, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
3
Add the egg, milk, and vanilla sugar. Quickly mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
4
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat it into a disc about 1 inch (3 cm) thick.
5
Cut the disc into 6-8 wedges and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
6
Let the scones cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve fresh.
