Apple Scone Cake

Any one who likes apples and scones, will love this cake. I got the recipe from www.joyofbaking.com and tweaked it a little bit - yummy! :) New one of my fave recipes!

Apple Scone Cake

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 stick unsalted chilled butter (cut into pieces)
1 egg
1/2 cup (minus 2 tbsp) milk
1 tsp vanilla
2 granny smith apple, thinly sliced
3 tbsp sugar
cinnamon to taste

350, buttered 9 in pie pan
mix dry ingredients, chop in butter till it looks like coarse meal. Mix together egg, milk, and vanilla. Stir into flour mixture - do not overmix. Then knead the dough 5 times. 1/2 the dough - press into the bottom of your pan and slightly up the sides. Then add in the apple mixtures (sugar and cinnamon). Take the rest of the dough and drop biscuit them on top. Sprinkle with sugar and bake for 45 minutes.

YUMMY! :) Serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream.
