Published 14th August, 2025

Serves: 10

Preparation: 20 Mins   Cooking: 20 Mins

Ingredients

  • 1 pkt 100g Barossa Fine Foods Ham Off The Bone
  • 3 cups self-raising flour
  • 80g unsalted butter, diced & chilled
  • 100g cheddar cheese, grated
  • 20g chives, thinly sliced (plus extra to garnish, optional)
  • 1 cup full cream milk
  • 2 tbsp thickened cream
  • 1 jar Beerenberg Australian Tomato Chutney
  • Sea salt & freshly cracked black pepper, to season (optional)

Method

  1. Remove the ham from the packet and roughly cut into small pieces. Set aside.
  2. Preheat a fan-forced oven to 200°C.
  3. Place the flour and butter into a large mixing bowl. Using your fingers, rub the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse breadcrumbs. Add the ham, cheese and chives.
  4. Pour in the milk and cream. Using a wooden spoon, mix until the dough just starts to come together. Tip onto a floured workbench and knead lightly with your hands (do not overwork the mixture or the scones will be dense).
  5. Flatten the dough to approximately 4cm thick, then use a round cutter to cut out 10–12 scones. Place onto a lightly floured baking tray.
  6. Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until golden. Remove and place on a wire rack to cool.
  7. To serve, cut in half and top with tomato chutney. Garnish with extra chives if desired.
