Tear-and-Share Cheese and Rosemary Scones
- 450g Self-raising flour
- 7,5ml Baking powder
- 5ml Fine salt
- 110g Butter, cut into cubes
- 2.5ml of mustard powder
- Black Pepepr, to taste
- 15ml Finely chopped fresh rosemary
- 130g Grated cheddar cheese
- 60ml NESTLÉ Klim mixed with 210ml of warm water
- Beaten egg, to brush the tops of the scones
- Extra cheddar cheese, to sprinkle before baking
- A few sprigs of rosemary, to garnish
- Soft butter, to serve
-
Preheat the oven to 160 Degrees Celsius. Grease a medium-sized round, oval or rectangle baking dish.
-
Place the self-raising flour, baking powder and fine salt in a bowl and whisk to combine. Add the butter cubes to the flour mixture and rub in with your fingertips until a fine crumb remains.
-
To the flour-butter crumb, add the mustard powder, a crack of black pepper, chopped rosemary and grated cheese. Stir to combine
-
Make a well in the centre of the mixture and pour in the Klim combined with water. Gently mix together using a butter knife to combine being careful not to overwork the mixture.
-
Flour a surface and tip the dough out onto the surface. Pat the dough into a 2cm-thick round. (Insert timing)
-
Using a 6cm diameter round cutter, cut 12 rounds of the dough and place in the greased dish, packed tightly so the edges touch.
-
Brush the top of the scones with the beaten egg and sprinkle with a little more grated cheese and some rosemary sprigs.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 – 20 minutes and serve just from the oven with soft butter.
