How to Make Cheese And Apple Scones
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, combine shredded cheese and diced apples. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda.
- Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gradually add buttermilk, mixing gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Gently fold in the cheese and apple mixture.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently 8-10 times.
- Pat the dough into a 9-inch circle. Cut into 8 wedges.
- Place the scones onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between them.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Let cool slightly on a wire rack before serving warm.
