BCO CHILLI-PARMESAN HERB SCONES

BCO CHILLI-PARMESAN HERB SCONES

Vibrant, savoury scones studded with parmesan and fresh herbs, finished with a hint of chilli for a warm, comforting bite. A perfect spring-time snack—great with butter or a light herb chutney, and ideal for picnics, brunches, or casual gatherings as the days warm up.

PREP TIME: 15 MINUTES
COOK TIME: 15 MINUTES
MAKES: 16-18 (depending on size)

INGREDIENTS:

500g cake flour
19g baking powder
3g salt
30g honey
515g cream 
30ml Banhoek Chilli Oil
1 cup grated parmesan cheese
¾ cup chopped herbs (dill, chives, rosemary)

METHOD:

Preheat the oven to 180°c and line a tray with baking paper. 

Mix the dry ingredients: 
Place the flour, baking powder, salt, cheese and herbs in a bowl and mix. 

Mix the wet ingredients: 
Separately add the honey and cream in a jug with the Banhoek Chilli Oil and mix well to disperse the honey. 

Combine:
Add the liquid to the flour mix and mix until the dough just starts to come together. Be careful not to overmix, it doesn’t have to be a perfectly smooth dough. 

Roll out:
Place on a floured surface and flatten using your hands or gently with a rolling pin until roughly 2 fingers thick. Cut into desired shapes. 

Bake:
Place on the tray and bake for 15 mins until golden on top. Enjoy it warm with butter and cheese.
