Lisa
ingredients
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1/3 cup butter, chilled and cut into large pieces
- 1/2-3/4 cup milk (low fat is fine)
- 1/2 cup crumbled goat cheese
- 1/2 cup diced fresh strawberries
directions
- 1
Preheat oven to 400F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Add in butter and toss to coat. Using your fingertips, rub the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles very coarse sand. A few large bits are ok, but try not to have any pieces larger than an average pea.

Add about 1/2 cup milk and goat cheese and stir, adding additional milk if necessary, until dough comes together into a slightly sticky ball. Mix in strawberries by hand, lightly kneading the dough to evenly distribute the fruit.

Place dough on prepared baking sheet and press down into a disc that is about 1-inch thick. Use a sharp knife to cut dough into 6 triangles. Separate slightly, giving them room to spread, and place pan in the oven.

Bake for 15-20 minutes, until scones are light gold on top. Let cool on a wire rack before serving. Scones can be served warm or at room temperature.
