Cheddar Cheese Scones

This morning I decided to make savory scones instead of the usual sweet scones. I did a quick search and found a couple of recipes for inspiration. I settled on this recipe.

2 cups all purpose flour
1 tbsp sugar
1 tsp salt
3 tsp baking powder
8 tbsp butter
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
1/2-1 cup shredded aged cheddar

Preheat the oven at 425F

Combine flour, salt, sugar, baking powder and give it a quick mix. Take cold butter from the frig, cut into pieces and cream with the flour. It should look like coarse crumbs. Add the cheddar and mix.

In a separate bowl mix the egg and milk. Combine the wet and dry. Knead for a minute and cut into 12 pieces and bake for 14 min.
