Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200C/400F. Line a baking sheet with baking parchment.
- Carefully cut the kernels from the raw corn on the cob (hold the cob tightly and run a sharp knife down the length). Add the kernels to a pot of boiling water and cook for 3 mins or until just tender, then drain.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, mustard powder and salt.
- Rub in the butter with your fingertips until it forms fine crumbs. Using a knife, mix in the milk until the dough starts to come together.
- Stir in the corn, crumbled goat’s cheese and jalapenos. It will form a fairly sticky dough, but take care not to overwork it.
- Tip the mixture onto a lightly floured surface and knead 3 or 4 times.
- Pat the dough out to 1 inch thickness. Use a 2inch/6cm round cookie cutter with the edge dipped in flour to cut out as many scones as possible. Pat the scraps back to a dough and repeat.
- Place the rounds onto the baking sheet and brush the tops with milk.
- Bake for 15 minutes until risen and golden.
Notes
- Best enjoyed on the same day or within 2 days if stored in an airtight container at room temperature.
