CHEESE AND HERB SCONES

These “muffins” scones is really very good, you can also add bacon and leave out cranberries and sugar.

2 cups of self raising flour
75 g butter, room temperature
¼ cup cranberries
¼ cup sunflower seeds
2 eggs
1 cup milk
½ teaspoon sugar
1 ¼ cup grated Gouda cheese
finely chopped fresh herbs like garlic chives or parsley

Preheat oven to 180ºC fan forced.
Place flour into a large bowl and rub butter into the flour.
Stir through the herbs, cheese, cranberries and seeds.
Mix the eggs, sugar and milk and mix through the flour mix with a fork.
Scoop into greased tin.
Bake for approximately 15 minutes.

Note:
Because all my ingredients was not room temperature I added a ½ teaspoon baking powder and 5 ml vinegar.
Serve warm with some butter.
