Recipe

Cheddar Dill Scones: Bread

Servings: 0

Prep time:1 hour

Ingredients:

  • 4 cups All-purpose Flour

  • 1 tablespoon All-purpose Flour

  • 2 tablespoons Baking Powder

  • 2 teaspoons Salt

  • 3/4 lb Cold Unsalted Butter, Diced

  • 4 Extra-large eggs, beaten lightly

  • 1 cup Cold heavy cream

  • 1/2 lb Extra Sharp Yellow Cheddar, small-diced

  • 1 cup Fresh Dill- minced

  • Egg beaten with water for egg wash

Step 1:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Combine 4 cups of flour, the baking powder, and salt in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment.

Step 2:

Add the butter and mix on low speed until the butter is in pea-sized pieces. Mix the eggs and heavy cream and quickly add them to the flour-and-butter mixture.

Step 3:

Combine until just blended. Toss together the Cheddar, dill, and 1 tablespoon of flour and add them to the dough.

Step 4:

Mix until they are almost incorporated. Dump the dough onto a well-floured surface and knead it for 1 minute, until the Cheddar and dill are well distributed. Roll the dough 3/4-inch thick.

Step 5:

Cut into 4-inch squares and then in half diagonally to make triangles. Brush the tops with egg wash. Bake on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for 20 to 25 minutes, until the outside is crusty and the inside is fully baked.
