Preheat oven to 400 °F (204 °C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and allspice.
Dice the butter into 1/2" cubes and put it in the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles a coarse meal.
Gently fold in the cinnamon chips and apples. Then in a measuring cup, whisk together buttermilk, egg, and vanilla extract.
Make a well in the center of your flour and apple mixture then pour in the buttermilk mixture.
Using a wooden spoon, start mixing the mixture together until just combined.
Pour out the mixture onto a floured surface and press out into an 8" circle.
Take a sharp knife and cut the dough into wedges and place them on the prepared baking sheets.
Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until slightly golden brown.
Let cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.
