Categories Scones

Time 28m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

2 cups self rising flour
1 pinch salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 ounces cheddar cheese, mature, grated
2 apples (such as Fuji of Gala)
1 tablespoon coarse grain mustard
1 egg, beaten
2 tablespoons apple juice, unsweetened (or more)

Steps:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
In a bowl, whisk together flour, salt & baking powder, then rub in the butter, before stirring in the cheese.
Peel & core the apples, then grate them coarsely, before stirring them into the flour mixture, along with the mustard, half of the beaten egg & enough apple juice to bind the mixture together into a soft dough.
On a lightly floured surface, gently roll out (or press) the dough into a round about 3/4-inch thick, then using a 3-and-1/2-inch plain round cutter, stamp out 6 rounds, re-rolling the trimmings as necessary.
Transfer these rounds to a baking sheet, then brush the tops with the remaining beaten egg & bake for 15-18 minutes, or until risen & golden.
Place on a wire rack to cool, before serving warm, split in half & buttered.

Tips:

For best texture, use very cold butter and cheese, and work quickly to avoid overmixing.
If the dough is too sticky, add more flour a tablespoon at a time until it comes together.
If the dough is too dry, add a little milk a tablespoon at a time until it comes together.
Use a sharp knife to cut the scones to ensure clean edges.
Bake the scones until they are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Conclusion:

Apple and cheese scones are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a snack. With their flaky texture, sweet and tart apples, and sharp cheddar cheese, these scones are sure to be a hit with everyone. Experiment with different apple and cheese combinations to find your favorite variation. These versatile scones can also be made ahead of time and frozen for later, making them a great option for busy weeknights.
