Time 27m

Yield 10 scones

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups flour (I use half whole grain flour)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
30 g butter, cut into small pieces
180 ml milk
30 g butter, melted
1/2 cup cheese, grated (e.g. cheddar or gouda cheese)
2 teaspoons sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 220°C/425°F.
  • In a big bowl mix flour, baking powder and salt. Using your finger tips work in butter until dough resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Make a well in the center and add milk. Using a knife stir quickly into a smooth dough.
  • Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 2 or 3 turns before rolling out (you can also just pat it down a bit).
  • Using a cookie cutter or glass to cut out scones (I use a 7.5 cm glass).
  • Place on a paper-lined baking sheet.
  • For glaze combine melted butter with cheese and sesame seeds and spread evenly over scones.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes or until nicely browned.
  • Enjoy warm or cooled.

Tips:

  • Use cold butter: This will help to create flaky scones.

  • Chill the dough before baking: This will help to develop the flavor and make the scones more tender.
  • Bake the scones in a hot oven: This will help to create a crispy exterior and a fluffy interior.
  • Serve the scones warm: Scones are best served warm, but they can also be enjoyed cold.
