These British Cheddar and Rosemary Scones are one of my favorite tastes of home. They are really easy to make and I adore the subtle combination of sweet and savory in this recipe. Cheddar cheese, rosemary, butter and jam isn’t a mix you imagine very often, but it tastes really great when put together in this recipe.
Start by combining dry ingredients. Add wet ingredients to the dry ones and mix well to form a dough ball. Roll the dough between two sheets of parchment paper until ½ an inch thick. Use a cookie cutter to cut out scones until no dough remains. Brush with melted butter and cook in a preheated oven. Serve warm with butter and jam. Yum!
To make British Cheddar and Rosemary Scones, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat oven to 400 °F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place six tablespoons of butter (reserve one tablespoon for later), 2 cups of flour, ¼ cup of sugar, 2 tablespoons of baking powder and ¼ teaspoon of salt in the bowl of a food processor and blend until fully combined. Transfer to a large mixing bowl.
Add 1 egg, ½ a cup of cream, 2 sprigs of chopped rosemary and 2 ounces of Cheddar cheese to the mixing bowl.
Bring the dough together into a ball.
Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll to ½-inch thickness.
Use a 2-inch cookie cutter to cut out scones until no more dough remains.
Melt the remaining tablespoon of butter and use it to brush the tops of the scones.
Bake the scones in the oven for 10-15 minutes until light golden brown on top.
Serve with butter and jam.
