Cheese Scones | Сирні коржики
Ingredients
Makes 12 scones
700g white flour
50g baking powder
125g butter
100g strong cheddar cheese, grated
400ml milk
Pinch of salt
Extra grated cheese for topping
1. Rub together all the dry ingredients until you have something resembling fine breadcrumbs. If you have time, leave in a clingfilmed/lidded container overnight and continue the next day, but this isn’t essential.
2. Add the milk and the cheese and mix quickly together, don’t overwork the dough.
3. Shape into a large ball and then roll out to a thickness of about 2cm.
4. Cut into scone shapes using approx.— 7 cm cutter.
5. Top the scones with a handful of grated cheese.
6. Place on a baking tray and brush with a little milk.
7. Bake in oven 170°C/330f for 15 minutes or until browning and cooked right through. You can test if they’re cooked by gently tapping on the bottom of the scone, it should sound slightly hollow if cooked.
