- Combine the frozen grated butter with the flour mixture and using a fork, pastry cutter, or your fingers, work the butter into the flour mixture until a coarse texture is formed, it will resemble small pea-sized crumbs. Set aside.
- Add the buttermilk, egg, vanilla, and sugar into a bowl and mix together using a whisk, then add to the flour mixture along with the cinnamon chips and stir just until the scone dough comes together and the dry mixture is moistened.
