These are wonderful savoury scones, which I got from 99 cents traditional british cooking cookbook. What a great invest I have to say! These are very easy to make and in my opinion have a great flavour, too. Let me know what you think!

10 scones (change servings and units)

Ingredients

2 cups flour (I use half whole grain flour)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
30 g butter, cut into small pieces
180 ml milk

Glaze

30 g butter, melted
1/2 cup cheese, grated (e.g. cheddar or gouda cheese)
2 teaspoons sesame seeds

Directions

1
Preheat the oven to 220°C/425°F.
2
In a big bowl mix flour, baking powder and salt. Using your finger tips work in butter until dough resembles coarse crumbs.
3
Make a well in the center and add milk. Using a knife stir quickly into a smooth dough.
4
Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 2 or 3 turns before rolling out (you can also just pat it down a bit).
5
Using a cookie cutter or glass to cut out scones (I use a 7.5 cm glass).
6
Place on a paper-lined baking sheet.
7
For glaze combine melted butter with cheese and sesame seeds and spread evenly over scones.
8
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until nicely browned.
9
Enjoy warm or cooled.

Fantastic! There must be a cheese scone gremlin in our house. By the time I washed the dishes and turned around, there was only two left on the plate. Aren't hubby and I lucky we got to taste one. This was perfect for afternoon tea on a rainy day. Little Miss (DD) helped cutting the scones out, they were so simple to make and very yummy. Thank you Lalaloula

Wonderful savoury scones, I halved the recipe and made small 6 ones that took 9 minutes to cook at 200C fan forced oven. The DM and I gobbled them all up with our soup for lunch. Thank you Lalaloula, made for Edition 8 - Make My Recipe.
