Cote Hill Blue Cheese & Spring Onion Scones

Ingredients
360g self raising flour
½ tsp mustard powder
Pinch of Cayenne pepper
Sea salt & black pepper
60g butter
2 large eggs
5 tbsp milk
120g Cote Hill blue cheese, finely crumbled
4 spring onions, chopped
Preheat oven to 200°C/Gas 6
Method
Sieve the flour into a mixing bowl along with the mustard powder, cayenne pepper, sea salt and black pepper; rub the butter into the flour until it resembles fine breadcrumbs. Mix in the spring onions and the blue cheese, make a well in the centre of the bowl, beat the egg with the milk and tip the mixture into the well and mix with a flat bladed knife to form a soft dough. Put onto a floured board and knead very lightly, make into a circle 2cm thick and cut into segments or cut into rounds. Brush lightly with milk and top with a little Cote Hill blue cheese, if desired. Bake for 12-15 minutes until brown on top.
