instructions
1. In a medium bowl, sift the flour, 1 teaspoon cinnamon and soda.

3. Rub the butter into flour with your fingers, lifting your hands above the bowl so that the scones are very soft.
4. Add 60g of sugar.
5. Peel and dice the apple and add to the scone mixture.
6. With a round bladeed knife mix in one tablespoon of milk at a time until it comes together and holds it shape.
