Cheesy Nettle Scones


Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups self raising flour
Salt 
Black pepper
5 spring onions (green parts only) 
10 nettle tops, steamed 
Milk 
60g butter
Small block extra mature cheddar, grated 

Method:
  1. Preheat oven to 220 degrees c. and prepare a baking sheet with baking parchment.
  2. Put butter and flour into a bowl and rub together until it resembles fine breadcrumbs.
  3. Add Salt, pepper, spring onions and nettles (both finely chopped) along with the grated cheddar.
  4. Add milk slowly and stir until it makes a dry-ish dough (soft but not sticky).
  5. This recipe should make about 9 scones, so divide mixture into 9 balls, they should be about the size of a golf ball, place on baking sheet and squash slightly.
  6. Place scones into the oven for 15 minutes, or until they are golden brown (see image above).
So simple- you really can't beat homemade cheesy baked goods!
