These scones are extra cheesy, savoury and delicious!

Tips & Tricks

Use 50g of Pams melted butter for brushing the top of the scones, to make them extra golden and crunchy!

Method

  1. Preheat your oven to 200°C fan bake. Line a baking tray with baking paper.

  2. Add the flour, 1 ½ cups of the grated cheese and the ham to a large bowl, along with ½ tsp of table salt. Toss together until the cheese and ham is evenly distributed.

  3. Add the yoghurt and stir together with a fork, until it forms a soft, shaggy dough.

  4. Tip the dough out onto a floured bench top and knead gently until the dough just comes together. Pat the dough into a rectangle roughly 3cm thick. Cut the rectangle in half lengthwise, then crosswise into 4 squares (to make a total of 8 scones)

  5. Place the scones spaced apart on the lined oven tray. Brush over the melted butter with a pastry brush, if using. Sprinkle over the remaining grated cheese.

  6. Bake for about 20-25 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through.
