This is my favorite, very simple, recipe for savory scones. They are wonderful served hot, spread with a little butter, and eaten alongside a steamy hot soup. It's important not to over handle these scones, as they will be heavy and tough.

Ingredients

  • self-rising flour: 2 cups
  • butter: 2 Tbsp
  • pinch salt: 1 piece
  • cheddar cheese: 0.5 cup (shredded)
  • clove garlic: 1 piece (minced)
  • milk: 1 cup

  3. Turn out onto a lightly floured board and knead briefly and lightly. Be careful not to overwork the dough. Press out dough to form a 1 inch thick round. Cut into 8 wedges. Place on prepared tray and brush with reserved milk.
