Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 tbsp Baking Powder
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 tbsp Sugar
  • 1/2 cup Chilled Unsalted Butter
  • 1/4 cup Green Onions (Scallions)
  • 1/4 cup Fresh Parsley
  • 1 tbsp Fresh Thyme
  • 1 tbsp Fresh Rosemary
  • 1 cup Ricotta Cheese
  • 1/4 cup Milk
  • 1 Beaten Egg (for wash)
  • Sea Salt, Black Pepper, Smoked Paprika to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
  3. Grate the chilled butter into the mix, stirring until the texture resembles coarse meal, about 1-2 minutes.
  4. Gently fold in the chopped scallions, fresh parsley, thyme, and rosemary.
  5. Add the ricotta cheese and milk to the mixture, stirring until just combined.
  6. Transfer the dough to a floured surface. Knead gently 2 to 3 times just to bring it together.
  7. Pat the dough into a 9-inch rectangle, then cut it into 12 equal pieces.
  8. Place the scone pieces on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  9. Brush the tops with the beaten egg wash and sprinkle with sea salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika.
  10. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and fragrant.

Notes

  • Enjoy warm with a dollop of butter for an indulgent treat.
  • Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
  • Experiment with different herbs and cheeses for variations.
  • Ensure baking powder is fresh for optimal rise.
  • Avoid overmixing the dough to maintain a tender texture.
