Ingredients

  • 225 g self-raising flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp English mustard powder
  • 100 g butter diced
  • 100 g Cheddar cheese grated
  • 75 g California Walnut Pieces chopped + 25g for the butter
  • 3 tbsp chopped chives
  • 150 ml milk

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 200oC, gas mark 6. Grease a large baking sheet.
  • Mix the flour, baking powder and mustard in a large bowl and rub in 50g butter until it resembles breadcrumbs. Stir in 75g Cheddar, all but 2 tbsp of the walnuts and 2 tbsp chives. Using a round bladed knife, mix in the milk to give a soft dough, taking care not to over knead it.
  • Transfer to a floured surface and roll out until 2cm thick. Using a 6cm round cutter, cut out 10 rounds and arrange them in a circle shape on the baking tray so that they all just touch each other. Brush with milk. Mix the remaining Cheddar with the reserved 2 tbsp walnuts and sprinkle on top of the scones. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden.
  • Meanwhile, soften the remaining 50g butter and mix in the last 1 tbsp chives and the final 25g finely chopped walnuts.
  • Serve the scones warm with the walnut butter.
