Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400º F with the rack in the center of the oven. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  • Empty a chickpeas can and preserve the liquid. This is Aquafaba.
  • To a small bowl, add heavy cream.
  • Add Aquafaba to it.
  • Whisk until fully combined. Keep it aside for now.
  • To another large bowl add the all-purpose flour.
  • Add the sugar, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and dry mustard, stir to combine.
  • Add the cold butter and using your fingers or a pastry cutter, cut and rub the butter into the dry mix until it's like coarse sand.
  • Add the shredded cheese.
  • Drain and rinse a can of Tuttorosso® Petite Diced Tomatoes. Add them to the bowl with the flour.
  • Now add the aquafaba+cream mixture.
  • Stir until the dough just comes together. You don't need to knead it. Just ensure there is no dry flour left.
  • Dump the dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead the dough by folding the dough over itself about 8-10 times. Add some flour if its sticky.
  • Divide the dough in half and form each half into a 5 inch circle. Don't press it down hard. Cut each circle into 4 or 6 wedges. You can also shape them as discs.
  • You can also use a scone cutter.
  • Transfer each wedge onto the lined baking sheet leaving about ½ inch between each triangle. Brush the scones with cream before baking them.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes until the tops are golden brown.

Notes

To add more flavors to this fluffy savory cheese scones recipe, add jalapenos, green onions, chives, or other herbs to the dough.
Shape them any way you want. You can either cut them in wedges, discs or use a scone cutter to shape these cheese scones.
