Cheese & Ham Scones

A savoury version of a classic!

Scone Mix

225g / 8oz Self Raising Flour

Pinch Of Salt

1 Teaspoons Garlic Granules

Pinch Of Black Pepper

3 Tablespoons Of Dried Parsley

40g / 1.5oz Butter

50g / 2oz Grated Cheddar Cheese

50g / 2oz Diced Ham

150ml Milk

---

1. Preheat the oven to gas mark 4/160oC & line 2 baking trays with baking parchment.

2. Firstly in a mixing bowl, add the flour, salt, pepper, parsley & garlic granules. Rub in the butter & then mix in the cheese and ham.

3. Add the milk gradually until a soft dough forms, then knead it softly on a floured work surface.

4. Pat the dough down slightly and break off into the portion sizes you want, big or small. Roll them into balls and place on your lined baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one. (Keep in mind to have all of the scones the same size so they cook evenly!)

5. Brush with a little milk on the top of each scone. Bake in the oven until they have risen, are golden and the base sounds hollow when tapped. Leave to cool on a wire rack and enjoy!

These could be served with a nice cream cheese, chutney, salsa or even some streaky bacon!

Or something simple like some sliced cheese!
