Ingredients:
- 280g flour

- 15ml baking powder
- 5ml garlic powder
- 2,5ml salt
- 5ml garlic and herb seasoning
- 80g FIRST CHOICE cold Butter, grated
- 50g grated parmesan cheese
- 1 egg
- 250ml FIRST CHOICE milk

BROWNED BUTTER HONEY
- 60ml FIRST CHOICE Butter
- 30ml FIRST CHOICE Honey
- 15ml chopped thyme

Preparation method:
- Preheat the oven to 190°C. Grease a large cast iron pan OR use a thick bottomed baking tray.
- Combine the flour, maize meal, baking powder, garlic powder, salt and garlic and herb seasoning.
- Using your fingertips, rub in the butter and the parmesan cheese.
- Combine the egg, milk and honey.
- Cut the liquid into the dry ingredients, using a knife or dough cutter. DO NOT add all the liquid. Mix until just combined.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface. Pat into a thick rectangle (about 2,5cm thick). Fold one side into the centre, then the other side on top. Like a letter. Turn the dough horizontally. Flatten into a rectangle again and repeat the folding. Turn the dough horizontally one more time. Flatten into a rectangle of about 2cm thick.
- Cut the dough into 6cm circles. Re-roll the remaining dough and cut more circles.
- Arrange the scones into the prepared pan or baking tray and brush the tops with egg wash.
- Arrange the 30g of cubed butter around the scones. Bake until golden brown, 20-22 minutes.
To make the browned butter honey:
- Melt the butter in a small saucepan on low heat until lightly browned.
- Remove from the heat and mix in the honey, chopped thyme and a little of the Maldon salt.
- Serve scones with the browned butter honey and more chopped thyme.
Enjoy!
