Roasted Tomato Feta Scones


These are Phil's favorite scones. I found this recipe on Savory Sweet Life, http://savorysweetlife.com/2011/05/roasted-tomato-feta-scones/


Last weekend I made them for our friends and they were a hit!

Ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 Tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 Teaspoon garlic salt
  • 4 Tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes
  • 3/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1slightly beaten egg 
  • 1 – 4 oz package feta cheese
  • 1/4 cup roasted red tomatoes, chopped
  •  2 green onions, finely sliced
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place the flour, baking powder, and garlic salt in a bowl. You can add the butter and use a food processor but I don't have one so, I cut the butter into pea size chunks throw them in the bowl and mix with my hands.  
  2. Stir in heavy cream and egg. Mix the dough by hand until it comes together. Add feta cheese, roasted tomatoes, and green onions. Gently mix the ingredients by hand until ingredients is evenly distributed.
  3. On a floured surface, form a big dough ball. Flatten the dough into a 1 inch disk and cut it in 8 equal pieces. Bake for 15 minutes on a baking sheet. Remove scones from baking sheet and cool on a wire rack.

Enjoy!
