Savoury Cheese Scones
These fluffy savoury cheese scones are ideal for afternoon tea, a snack or lunchbox. This easy recipe is flavored with paprika.
With this recipe, you can make 8 large scones or 12 to 15 small ones.
When the weather is too warm, I put the scones in the fridge for 20 minutes before baking them.
RECIPE
- In a large bowl, mix the dry ingredients together, including the flour, baking powder, paprika, and salt.
- Add the cold butter cubes and try to mix it with your finger tips.
- Add the grated cheese.
- Add the milk to the dry mixture and mix until well combined.
