Diabetic Cinnamon Bun Scones
I love cinnamon. when i started my diabetic diet, they told me that cinnamon actually helps the insulin work and promotes health in a diabetic. so, with that in mind, i started using tons of it. i love it, so that wasn't a problem for me. i use it on lots of food, sweets and savories. this recipe is one of my favorites. i usually cut it in half for myself, but if you're preparing them for a party or a family, you'll want to make the whole batch.
