Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 2.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
• 1 cups Sharp cheddar cheese (shredded)
• 3 tablespoons Chutney (mango or tomato, your preference)
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 0.75 cups Whole milk (plus extra for brushing)
• 1 Egg (lightly beaten)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until evenly distributed.

Step 5

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the milk, chutney, honey, and egg.

Step 6

Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the wet mixture into it. Stir gently with a fork or spatula until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 7

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead it 2-3 times to bring it together, then pat it into a circle about 1-inch thick.

Step 8

Using a sharp knife, cut the dough into 8 wedges (like a pie) and transfer them to the prepared baking sheet.

Step 9

Brush the tops of the scones with additional milk for a golden finish.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 16-18 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown and cooked through.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
