Cheese and Biltong Scone

We or I love a freshly baked scone, piping hot with a dollop of butter and a cuppa coffee. Please try this one: Cheese and Biltong Scones

Ingredients:

• 2 cups all purpose flour
• 5 teaspoons baking powder
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 cup almond milk (regular milk will also work)
• ¼ cup vegetable oil
• 1 egg
• 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
• 150g sliced and then chopped into smaller pieces of biltong (Jerky)

Method:

1. Mix the first 3 ingredients listed.
2. Add milk, oil, and egg together, and mix into the dry mixture.
3. Lastly, add the cheese and biltong/jerky into the mixture.
4. The dough is firm enough to work by hand.
5. Preheat oven to 200C/400F.
6. I used a regular size 12 well muffin pan.
7. Oil your hands slightly, then form 12 equal size balls and place in a well-greased muffin pan and bake for ±20 minutes until lightly golden brown on top or until a skewer inserted comes out clean.
8. Serve it warm out of the oven with fresh butter and a cup of steaming coffee. <3
