香料起司司康 Spices & Cheese Scones


So wonderful with strawberry preserves! | 配草莓果醬好好吃呀


Ah weekend! Being a housewife, a full-time mom, I'm always busier on the weekend than weekdays.  This weekend we have errands and Almond Festival at Capay Valley awaiting. Don't have the time to stand in my kitchen. I need quick bread.

Scones had been in my to-do baking list for several weeks. Finally got my hands on... oh the butter!

又是週末了!身為一個家庭主婦、全職媽媽,週末總是比平常日還要忙。這週除了要去買菜之外還有個杏仁節要去走走看看,沒什麼時間待在廚房裡。這時候就需要快速麵包。

司康在我的待烘焙清單裡已經好幾週了,終於拿出奶油要來做啦!




Spices & Cheese Scones (makes 8 pieces.)

  • all-purpose flour 250 g

  • spices of your choice 1-2 teaspoons (I used mixed spices here.)
  • Monterey Jack cheese 1/4 cup grated
  • egg 1
  • milk 2 1/2 Tablespoons

  3. Add in the butter cubes and roughly mix them.
  4. Mix in the spices and cheese.

  6. When the dough is about to form, turn it out onto a working surface and knead for a few times just to let it hold together.
  7. Shape the dough into a ball and press or roll it into a thick round disk, about 3/4 inch thick.
  8. Cut into 8 wedges. Put the scones on the baking sheet and brush with some milk.
