Recipe Introduction
These were the first ever things I baked at school. Now, I can't guarantee my Cheese Scones Recipe is the same as the one I used all those years ago, but I reckon my homemade method is pretty close.
Cooking Directions
- Sieve the Self Raising Flour and Baking Powder into a large mixing bowl. Add a pinch of Salt and briefly combine with a wooden spoon.
- Chop the Butter into cubes and add to the bowl. Use your fingertips to work the butter into the flour until you're left with a consistency like fine breadcrumbs.
- Briefly mix in the grated Cheddar Cheese then gradually add the Milk (taken from 150ml) whilst mixing, until you're left with a soft/firm dough. You may not need all the milk.
- Flour a clean work surface and briefly knead the dough for 30 seconds.
- Roll the dough out to a thickness of 1.5cm then use a medium size cookie cutter to cut out 8 scones.
- Place the scones on an oven tray lined with greaseproof or parchment paper then brush with Milk and sprinkle over some grated Cheese.
- Bake in an oven preheated to 180c/350f for 15 minutes, or until risen and golden.
- Leave to cook then serve and enjoy.
Best enjoyed with a nice cup of tea!
