Tracey whips up these sensational savoury scones in a jiffy - they are favourites to take out on a muster or to have for morning tea. The filling, she says, will differ with what is in the fridge, so feel free to make up your own variations.
Ingredients
- 3 cups self-raising flour
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 50 grams butter, diced
- 1¼ cups milk
- ½-¾ cup relish
- 3-4 rashers bacon, diced
- 1 cup grated cheese
Method
- Preheat the oven to 240ºC. Grease or line a baking tray with baking paper.
- Sift the flour and salt into a large bowl and use your fingertips to rub in the butter. Make a well in the centre, pour in the milk and use a knife to mix quickly together to make a soft dough.
- Turn out onto a lightly floured board and bring together. Roll out to a 25x35cm rectangle. Brush a 1cm wide strip around the edge with milk. Spread the relish over the dough and scatter over the bacon and cheese.
- Roll up from the long edge to make a tight roll. Cut into 2cm wide slices and place on the prepared tray.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until well risen and golden. When the centre pinwheel is split open it should be light and well cooked, not doughy.
- Transfer to a cake rack and serve warm with butter, if wished.
Cooks Tips
- If you do not have self-raising flour, use 3 cups plain flour and 6 teaspoons baking powder.
