Two Cheese Scones With A Touch Of Cayenne - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour (I use whole spelt flour)
    1/2 tablespoon baking powder
    1/8 teaspoon baking soda
    1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (may use more if you like some heat)
    40 g garlic infused butter
    3 tablespoons asiago cheese, grated
    3 tablespoons gouda cheese, grated
    150 g yogurt (low-fat is fine)
Preparation
    In a big bowl combine flour, soda, baking powder and cayenne pepper.
    Rub in the butter using your finger tips.
    Stir in the two cheeses.
    Add the yogurt and knead briefly until a soft (but not sticky) dough has formed. You might need a little more yogurt (or water) to reach the right consistency.
    Flatten dough and cut out scones of desired size. I use a 3 inch glass for cutting out the scones.
    Place on a paper-lined baking sheet and brush tops with some yogurt (if desired).
    Bake in the preheated oven at 200\u00b0C/400\u00b0F for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean.
    Enjoy! :).
