Categories     Scones

Time 30m

Yield 9 scones

Number Of Ingredients 8

225 g self rising flour
55 g butter
25 g fresh grated parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/8 teaspoon mustard powder
1 1/2 teaspoons dried basil
120 ml milk, plus extra as needed

Steps:

  • Pre-heat oven to 190°C.
  • In a large bowl, crumble the butter into the flour, working it in with your hand until it is no longer discernible from the flour.
  • Add the cheese, salt, baking soda, mustard powder and basil, mixing well.
  • Add the milk, beginning with 120 ml, and then adding a little at a time until you achieve a soft dough that sticks together in a ball in your bowl.
  • This is normally a bit more than 180 ml in total, but will depend on your flour and the humidity on the day.
  • Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface in a square to a thickness of 1 1/2 cm (1/2 inch).
  • Make three equal horizontal, then vertical cuts resulting in 9 scones.
  • Place each scone on a non-stick baking sheet, and bake for 12-15 minutes or until they are lightly browned.

I'm not a big fan of scones, but these ones are an exception. They're so light and fluffy, and the parmesan and basil flavors are amazing.

These scones are a great way to use up leftover parmesan cheese. I also like to add some chopped sun-dried tomatoes to the batter for an extra boost of flavor.

I've made these scones with both fresh and dried basil, and they're both delicious. If you're using dried basil, be sure to use a light hand, as it can be quite strong.

These scones are the perfect make-ahead breakfast or snack. I usually make a batch on the weekend and then freeze them. They're just as good when reheated.
