Directions:
- In a small mixing bowl, pour enough hot water over currants to cover. Let stand for 5 minutes, drain and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, the 3 tablespoons of sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in currants or cranberries.
- In a small bowl, blend the sour creme and egg YOLK. Add all at once to crumb mixture, stirring just until the dough clings together. On a lightly floured surface, knead the dough gently a dozen times.
- Pat or roll the dough to a 9-inch circle (about 1/2 thick). Cut scones with a 4 round cookie cutter (or use a big plastic cup). Slice each circle ALMOST completely though in an X formation but do not separate into quarters.
- Place on an ungreased baking sheet (no-stick is best). Brush scones with egg WHITE. Combine the 1 teaspoon of sugar and the cinnamon and sprinkle over the tops. Use a little more if necessary.
- Bake in a pre-heated 425-degree F. oven, 15-18 minutes, until they lightly brown on top. Allow 5 minutes for cooling prior to serving.
- TIP: If you want them sweeter, just double or triple the cinnamon-sugar blend.
