Found this recipe on the internet. It's a nice twist on the traditional English scone (see Easy English Scones). Ingredients:
2 cups sifted all-purpose flour (256gm) |
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon salt (3ml) |
1/4 cup margarine or 1/4 cup butter |
1 cup milk |
2/3 cup grated cheddar cheese |
1/4-1/2 teaspoon dried oregano |
Directions:
1. Sift the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt together. Add grated cheese and dried oregano and mix.
2. Cut in the margarine or butter till mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.
3. Add the milk and mix to make a smooth dough. (add more milk if necessary to ensure mix is not too dry) Knead very lightly for ten seconds on a lightly floured surface.
4. Roll or pat to about 3/4 thick (2 cm) and cut into individual scones.
5. Top each scone with a little additional cheese and bake for approximately 12 minutes. Brush the tops with melted butter after removing from the oven.
