What scone recipe could be easier and quicker than this one? It's like a comforting hug. You could get fancy and add paprika or chopped olives and sprinkle with chopped herbs and garlic, but you won't go wrong with just these 3 ingredients.
Makes 8 large scones or 9 medium ones
2 1/2 c self raising flour of choice (or normal flour with 2 tsp baking powder. If you're using gluten-free flour also add 1/2 tsp xanthan gum)
2 1/2 c grated cheese, plus a bit extra for sprinkling
2 c Greek yoghurt
Preheat oven to 200C. Dust a baking sheet with flour.
Sift the flour into a bowl. Mix in cheese then fold in yoghurt until a sticky dough forms.
Transfer to a floured surface and pat out into a circle about 20 cm round and 2.5 cm thick, or square shape. Place onto your baking sheet.
Sprinkle with some more cheese. Cut the circle into 8 even pieces or 9 pieces if you have a square.
Bake for around 20 min until golden on top and cooked through. If it starts to brown too much cover with foil for the last 5 minutes.
Best served warmed with butter.
