Recipe Card

ingredients

  • 1/2 cup Muir Glen Fire Roasted Diced Tomatoes
  • 2 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 2 teaspoons sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 stick unsalted butter, very cold and cubed
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 4 tablespoons basil, fresh, chopped
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten

Method

  • Step 1

    Preheat oven to 425ºF. Strain tomatoes in a fine-mesh strainer to get rid of extra liquid.

  • Step 2

    Mix flour, baking powder, sugar, salt and baking soda in a medium bowl. Add the butter and combine with dry ingredients using a pastry cutter or your hands, until mixture is crumbly. Add feta, strained tomatoes, buttermilk and basil. Mix until the dough just comes together, being careful not to overwork the dough.

  • Step 3

    Place dough on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Shape into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Using a knife or pizza cutter, cut into triangular slices. Separate them so that they have room to grow in the oven.

  • Step 4

    Brush each scone with egg. Bake for 18-25 minutes, until golden brown and crisp on the outside. Serve warm or cold.
