Manchego, Herb, And Sun-Dried Tomato Scones
- 2 cups all-purpose flour (about 9 ounces)
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons chilled butter, cut into small pieces
- 1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded Manchego cheese
- 1/2 cup chopped ready-to-use sun-dried tomatoes (2 ounces)
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
- 3/4 cup low-fat buttermilk
- 2 large egg whites
- Cooking spray
- Preheat oven to 425u0b0.
- Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl, stirring with a whisk. Cut in butter with a pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in cheese, tomatoes, and basil. Add buttermilk and egg whites, stirring just until moist.
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; knead lightly 4 times with floured hands. Pat dough into an 8-inch circle on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Cut dough into 8 wedges, cutting into but not through dough. Coat top of dough lightly with cooking spray. Bake at 425u0b0 for 15 minutes or until scones are golden.
