Cheese and Marmite Scones

 

8 oz (225 g) Flour (white or wholemeal or half & half)
 

2 oz (50 g) Margarine (or butter)
 

1/2 tsp Bicarbonate of Soda 

1tsp Cream of tartar
 

150 ml Milk ( I used soya) 

 1-2 tbs Marmite (or similar)

 2 oz (50 g) Grated cheddar cheese

Add Bicarb and cream of tartar to flour and mix
Rub margarine into flour
Add the Marmite
Add the milk and mix quickly and lightly, don't kneed it like bread- that makes the scones 'heavy'
Have a piece of greaseproof paper with a handful of flour on it ready, put the scone mixture onto it and shape into a a circle or oblong (depending on what shape scones you are making), cut into shape with a cutter.

Place on tray, put in the oven right away, cook for 15-20 min depending on you oven
