How to Make Garlic Parmesan Scones
  1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C) and prep a baking tray by lining it with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and baking powder until well blended.
  3. Incorporate Butter: Cut the cold unsalted butter into your flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Add Cheese and Garlic: Gently fold in the Parmesan cheese and minced garlic until evenly distributed.
  5. Bind with Milk: Gradually pour the whole milk into the mixture, folding until just combined.
  6. Shape and Cut: Turn the dough onto a floured surface, pat into a 1-inch thick disk, and cut into 6 wedges.
  7. Bake: Arrange the scones on the tray and bake for about 20 minutes until golden brown.
