Serves: 10
Ingredients
- 2 ½ -3 cups flour
- 2 tablespoons+ 2 teaspoons of baking powder
- 1 teaspoon of kosher salt
- Black pepper
- 1 cup of half and half
- 1 egg
- 1 cup of grated cheddar cheese
- 3 scallions, white and green parts, finely diced
- 2 tablespoons of diced pickled jalapenos
- 1 tablespoon of fresh dill, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon of melted unsalted butter
Instructions
- In a large bowl mix together the flour, salt, pepper and baking powder. In a smaller bowl mix together the half and half with the egg. Add the half and half/egg mixture to the larger bowl. Add in the cheese, jalapenos, scallions and dill. Mix the dough together with your hands, until everything is incorporated. Lightly flour a work surface and roll the dough out, so that it's 1-inch thick. Using a 3-inch cookie cutter, bowl, or cup, cut the dough into circles. Place the scones on a cookie sheet and brush with the melted butter. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
