Cheese Scones With Gomashio

I came up with this recipe myself looking for a whole grain cheese scone recipe with some jazz. You can vary this recipe easily by adding in e.g. sesame seeds, tahini, some herbs, garlic or other add-ins of your choice.

• Ready In: 25 mins
• Yields: 4 scones

Ingredients

• 1 1⁄4 cups  whole grain flour
• 1 1⁄2 teaspoons baking powder
• 30  g butter
• 2 -4  tablespoons  gomashio (use more if you really want to taste the sesame in the scones)
• 1⁄4-1⁄2 cup milk
•  grated cheese, for sprinkling

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 220°C/425°F.
2. In a bowl combine flour, gomashio and baking powder. Rub in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
3. Add liquid little by little until a soft, but not sticky dough forms.
4. Pat out on a lightly floured surface and cut out scones of desired size ( I use a regular glass for cutting).
5. Place on a papaer-lined baking sheet, top with grated cheese and bake for about 15 minutes or until golden brown and baked through.
6. Enjoy! :).
