Time 25m

Yield Makes 12-15

Number Of Ingredients 6

200g self-raising flour , plus a little more for dusting
50g butter , at room temperature
25g porridge oats
75g grated cheddar , plus extra for topping (optional)
150ml milk
avocado , soft cheese, ham, cucumber, cress

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 220c/fan 200c/gas 7. Place the flour in a large bowl, then rub in the butter. Stir in the oats and cheese, then the milk - if it feels like it might be dry, add a touch more milk, then bring together to make a soft dough.
  • Lightly dust the surface with a little flour. roll out the dough no thinner than 2cm. Using a 4cm plain cutter, firmly stamp out the rounds - try not to twist the cutter as this makes the scones rise unevenly. re-roll the trimmings and stamp out more.
  • Transfer to a non-stick baking sheet, dust with a little more flour or grated cheese, then bake for 12-15 mins until well risen and golden. Cool on a wire rack before serving on their own or topped with mashed avocado, or soft cheese, and ham, cucumber or cress.

SAGE, BACON AND CHEDDAR SCONES



Sage, Bacon and Cheddar Scones image

I wanted to try using the fresh sage that has been growing in my garden for 6 years and has never been used when I came across an interesting biscuit recipe in my files clipped from Gourmet magazine's Feb 1997 issue. I prefer scones so I adapted the recipe. I served these with our Canadian Thanksgiving dinner and they were a big hit. My picky eater son asked me to make them again which really surprised me since I thought the sage would scare him off. You must use fresh sage for these. Dried just won't give the same result. Prep time is my estimate.

4 cups all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons baking powder

10 tablespoons unsalted cold butter, cut into pieces

Tips:

  • Don't overwork the dough: Overworking the dough will make the scones tough. Mix the ingredients until they are just combined, then stop.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help the scones to rise evenly and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the scones in a hot oven: A hot oven will help the scones to rise quickly and prevent them from drying out.
  • Don't overbake the scones: Overbaked scones will be dry and crumbly. Bake the scones until they are just golden brown on top.
