Ingredients

  • 300 g self raising flour
  • 125 g unsalted butter chilled
  • 30 g raw sugar
  • 50 g parmesan cheese grated
  • 50 g mature sharp cheddar cheese grated
  • 50 g freshly cut chives
  • 1 large egg
  • 75 ml whole milk

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl, add self-raising flour and chilled butter cut into cubes.
  • Rub the butter flat with the flour to create layers of fat within the dough.
  • Add raw sugar, grated parmesan / cheddar cheese and freshly cut chives. Mix evenly.
  • Make a well in the centre of the flour mixture and add beaten egg with milk. Leave about 3 tablespoon for egg wash.
  • Gently mix all ingredients together to form a soft dough.
  • Set aside to rest for 30 minutes.
  • Transfer dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently roll flat about 1 inch thick.
  • Using a 2 inch round cutter, cut rolled dough to shape.
  • Arrange on a lined baking tray. Brush the top with remaining egg & milk mixture.
  • Bake in a preheated oven at 180 C for 10 – 12 mins until golden brown and cooked through.
  • Remove the tray from the oven and transfer onto a cooling rack.
  • Best served warm.

Notes

Scones can last about a week in the fridge but much longer when frozen.
Lightly reheat in the oven or air-fryer before serving.
