My family really enjoys these hearty sconesthey're a nice change from the usual muffins and biscuits. They're nice to have on hand for when unexpected company drops in...which seems to be often! Ingredients:
3-1/2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
2 tablespoons baking powder |
1 teaspoon ground mustard |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
3/4 cup cold butter |
1-1/2 cups (6 ounces each) shredded cheddar cheese |
1 can (15 ounces) cream-style corn |
2 eggs, lightly beaten |
2 tablespoons milk |
Directions:
1. In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder, mustard and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in cheese, corn and eggs until a soft dough forms.
2. Turn onto a floured surface, kneading gently 10-12 times or until dough is no longer sticky. Roll out to 1-in. thickness; cut with a 2-1/2-in. or 3-in. cutter.
3. Place on an ungreased baking sheet. Brush with milk. Bake at 425° for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm. Yield: 10-15 scones.
