Directions: |
Directions:1. Preheat oven to 425ºF. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper (if you have it on hand).
2. Whisk together buttermilk and 1/4 cup of the honey until honey is dissolved.
3. Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and nutmeg in a bowl. Cut in butter with a pastry blender until coarse crumbs form. Stir in apples. Drizzle buttermilk mixture overtop. Stir with a fork until a soft dough forms.
4. Gather with floured hands and transfer to a lightly floured surface. Gently knead 2 or 3 times just until dough holds together. Pat into an 8-inch circle and cut in 8 wedges. Place on prepared baking sheet, at least 1 inch apart.
5. Bake for about 15 to 18 minutes or until puffed and golden. Warm remaining honey and brush over scones. Transfer to a rack. Let cool slightly and serve warm or let cool completely.
