Marscapone and chive griddle sconesServes 4
Ingredients
- 200g flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons fresh chopped chives
- 250g mascarpone
- 100–120mls milk
Method
- Place a large cast-iron pan onto a medium heat. Sift the flour, baking powder and salt into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Add the chives and mascarpone, then work in with a fork. Add the milk a little at a time until the mix comes together to form a dough – you may not need all the milk.
- On a floured surface, knead the dough 2 or 3 times. Divide into 12 even pieces then pat each piece into a flat circle around half a centimetre thick. In 2 batches, place the dough circles into the hot dry pan. Turn over after 2 minutes then cook a further 2 minutes. Keep warm in the oven until serving time.
