Ingredients
- 1.5 cup Cornmeal
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 1/2 cup Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Fresh corn kernels
- 1 medium Jalapeno pepper
- 1/2 cup Cheddar cheese
- 3/4 cup Buttermilk
- 1 tablespoon Honey
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). In a large bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the corn kernels, jalapeno pepper, and cheddar cheese. In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and honey. Gradually add the buttermilk mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring just until combined. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently a few times. Pat the dough into a 1-inch thick round and cut into 8 wedges. Place the scones on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow the scones to cool for 10 minutes before serving.
