Ingredients

  • 225 g self raising flour
  • pinch salt
  • 55 g butter
  • 25 g Cheddar cheese mature, grated
  • 150 ml milk

DISCLAIMER

I recommend using the Metric measurements (instead of cups & spoons) for more accuracy and better results.

Instructions

  • Heat the oven to 220C or 200C Fan/Gas 7. Lightly grease a baking sheet.
  • Mix together the flour and salt and rub in the butter.
  • Stir in the cheese and then the milk to get a soft dough.
  • Turn onto a floured work surface and knead very lightly. Pat out to a round 2cm/¾in thick. Use a 5cm/2in cutter to stamp out rounds and place on the baking sheet. Lightly knead together the rest of the dough and stamp out more scones to use it all up.
  • Brush the tops of the scones with a little milk. Bake for 12–15 minutes until well risen and golden. Cool on a wire rack.
  • Serve warm with good covering of Butter
