How to Make Asiago Scones
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 cup grated Asiago cheese.
- Cut in 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 large egg and 1/4 cup milk.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat it into a 1-inch thick circle.
- Use a 2-inch biscuit cutter or knife to cut out 8 scones.
- Place the scones onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Brush the scones with an egg wash (1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon of water) and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of coarse sugar.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
