Try these healthier cheese and chutney scones, made using reduced-fat spread and cheese, as a mid-afternoon snack or served alongside a bowl of homemade soup.
Serves: 12
Time to make: 30 mins
Hands-on time: 10 mins
Ingredients
- ¼ cup reduced-fat spread, plus extra to grease
- 2 ¾ cups self-raising flour, plus extra to knead
- ¾ cup reduced-fat mature cheese, grated
- 1 teaspoon dried sage
- 1 cup skim milk
- ¼ cup caramelised red onion chutney
Instructions
1 Preheat the oven to 200°C/fan 180°C/gas 6. Rub the spread into the flour to form fine crumbs. Add three-quarters of the cheese and the sage and mix well. Add the milk to form a soft dough.
