Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Cut the butter into small cubes and add it to the flour mixture. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, chopped dill, and finely chopped red onion.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk and egg. Pour the milk mixture into the flour mixture and stir until just combined.
  6. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead it a few times until it comes together.
  7. Pat the dough into a 1-inch thick circle and cut out scones using a round biscuit cutter.
  8. Place the scones onto the prepared baking sheet and brush the tops with a little milk.
  9. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown.
  10. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
