Savory Cheese & Herb Scones

Ingredients

• 225 g flour (Type 1050)
• 1 pinch salt
• 3 tsp baking powder
• 50 g butter
• 125 g grated cheese
• 2 tsp mild mustard
• 1 bunch chives or parsley (to taste), finely chopped
• 150 ml milk

Instructions

1. 1.

   Sift flour, salt and baking powder into a bowl. Add the butter in small pieces and knead into a crumbly dough. Stir in grated cheese, mustard and chopped herbs. Then gradually whisk in enough milk to form a smooth dough.

2. 2.

   Roll the dough on a lightly floured work surface to about 2.5 cm thickness and cut into a circle. Slice the round dough into 8 wedges (like cake slices).

3. 3.

   Preheat the oven to 210°C. Place the triangles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for about 20 minutes on the middle rack until golden brown. Let the scones cool.
