Ingredients:

3 1/4 cups flour

1/3 cup sugar

2 1/2 tsp. baking powder

1/2 tsp. baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

3/4 cup cold butter

1 cup buttermilk

10 oz. Cinnamon baking chips Topping

2 1/2 T. melted butter

2 T. sugar

1 tsp. cinnamon

Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl.

Cut in the cold butter with a pastry blender, until it resembles course crumbs. Stir in buttermilk until moistened.

Fold in cinnamon chips. Knead gently 10-12 times or until dough is no longer sticky on a lightly floured surface. Cut the dough in half, then roll each portion into a 7 inch circle. Brush each circle with melted butter.

In a separate bowl combine sugar and cinnamon for topping. Sprinkle onto dough circles. Cut each circle into 6 or 8 wedges. Separate wedges and place on an ungreased baking sheet with at least 1cm between each wedge.

Bake at 425 degrees for 11-13 minutes or until lightly browned.
