- Using a 4cm cookie cutter cut round shapes out of the dough and place on greased baking sheet.
- Brush surface of scones with the last egg well beaten.
- Bake for 15 minutes until tops are golden brown.
Notes
Even though these have jalapeños they are not too spicy, they just add a nice delicious flavour that you're going to love.
