Apple Butter Scones

Another of my daughter's finds, she made these for last Sunday's breakfast. Add a little apple butter on top and they are wonderful. She substituted the creamer for heavy cream that was called for in the original recipe and found she had to add a little extra flour, perhaps because it's thinner than the cream would have been. This reduced the fat from 13 grams to 7.

2 1/4 c Flour
1 T Sodium Free Baking Powder
1 T Brown Sugar
1/4 c Unsalted Margarine,Melted
1/2 c Egg Substitute
1/2 c Non Fat,Non Diary Creamer
1/4 c Apple Butter
1 t Unsalted Margarine,Melted
2 t Sugar
1/4 t Cinnamon

Mix flour, baking powder and brown sugar in a large bowl. Stir in 1/4 cup butter, eggs, creamer and apple butter until soft dough forms. Place dough on lightly floured surface. Pat into 8 inch round, about 3/4 inch thick. Brush with 1 tablespoon butter and sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar. Cut into 8 wedges. Place 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 10-15 minutes at 425, or until golden brown.
