Langkah-langkah
Preheat oven to 375°F.
Combine the first five ingredients in a medium bowl, stirring with a whisk.
Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
Combine the flours, baking powder, cinnamon nutmeg, and salt in another large bowl, stirring with a whisk.
Cut in chilled butter with a pastry blender, or you could use 2 knives, until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
Fold in diced minced apples.
Add buttermilk mixture, stirring just until moist.
Place dough onto a floured surface and knead lightly four times with floured hands.
Form dough into an 9-inch circle onto baking sheet, about 3/4" thick. Using a knife, cut dough into 12 wedges all the way through.
Bake until golden, about 18-20 minutes, depending on your oven.
Place on a cooling rack about 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, to make the glaze: Mix powdered sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg with 2 tbsp of milk, adding 1/2 tbsp more (1 tsp at a time) if necessary to get the consistency to the right thickness. Stir until completely smooth.
Place scones on parchment or wax paper and drizzle the glaze over the scones using a spoon - or- place the glaze in a shallow bowl and dip the top of the scones into the glaze, then let it sit on the waxed paper to harden. Makes 12 scones.
