Garlic Soda Bread Scones

INGREDIENTS:

– 2 1/4 C. whole wheat flour

– 2 1/4 C. white flour

– 1tsp. salt

– 1tsp. baking soda

-2 cup of buttermilk

PREPARATION: Preheat the oven to 450F. Mix all the dry ingredients together in a large bowl. Make a well in the center and add the buttermilk. Mix by hand,adding more buttermilk if necessary,until you have a soft but not sticky dough. Turn out on to a floured surface and knead lightly just enough to shape the dough into a round. Flatten it to about 1″ thick and cut out 8-10 scones, using a 3″ circle cutter. Put on to a floured baking tray and bake for about 20 minutes, until golden. Leave to cool slightly on a wire rack. Serve with soup,stews or traditional breakfasts.
