Sun-dried tomato, feta and black pepper savoury scones

oh my great granny! if you thought sweet scones were good, it was only because you havent tasted  these! savoury,  peppery, cheesy bits of goodness. wish i had one right now
you can almost pipe this dough its so soft

so these are scones, i just cut them into squares because i dont have a round cutter.
you could also form it into thin pieces which would taste like cheese straws.
add a few slabs of mozzarella and you will be in heaven

feta and sundried tomato are the best!!


Ingredients:

450gr self raising flour
1 tsp salt
2 tsp pepper
60 gr butter
430 ml buttermilk

as much feta and sun dried tomatoes as you like! i used about 1/4 cup chopped sundried tomatos and 1/2 cup chopped feta



1. sift dry ingredients together and rub in chopped butter. stir in flavourings and enough buttermilk to make a soft sticky dough
2. turn onto a floured surface and knead very lightly, just until its smooth. press it out to 2.5 cm thickness and use cutters to cut 5cm rounds/ shape it as you like.
3. brush tops with egg, place on baking paper and bake in very hot oven (200-220'C) for 15 min.
