Mums Cheese Scones Recipes

Steps:

• In a bowl, mix together the beaten egg, melted butter and milk with a spoon. Stir in the grated cheese, and a shake of cayenne pepper to taste.
• Sift the self raising flour with the salt, then fold into the egg mixture. The mixture will be quite sloppy.
• Place into small muffin pans and bake in a hot oven 10 to 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 with a large baking tray inside. Sift the flour, salt, cayenne pepper and baking powder into a bowl, then sift again to make sure the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
• Add the butter to the bowl and combine with your fingertips to make breadcrumbs. Sprinkle 100g of the cheese into the breadcrumb mixture and rub together until evenly distributed. Try not to mix too much as the heat from your hands may start to melt the butter.
• Make a well in the centre of the mixture and pour in enough milk to give a fairly soft but firm dough. Do not pour in all the milk at once as you may not need it all to get the right consistency.
• Lightly flour a surface and roll out the dough to approximately 2cm thick. Cut out the scones with a medium (about 8cm) cutter, then put on a sheet of baking parchment, glaze with a little milk and sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Slide onto the hot oven tray.
• Bake in the oven for 15-20 mins or until golden brown and cooked through.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220ºC, 425ºF, Gas Mark 7. Grease a baking tray.
• Mix flour and seasonings, rub in margarine and stir in cheese.
• Mix to a soft dough with the egg and milk, reserving a little for glazing.
• Roll out to a round 1.5 cm (½ inch) in thickness and cut into 8 triangles.
• Place on the baking tray and brush with egg and milk and sprinkle with parmesan cheese. Bake for about 10-15 minutes until golden brown.
