Elevate your scones with this Apple Sage and Cheddar Scones recipe to enjoy a perfect fusion of sweetness, aroma and savoriness in every bite.
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
Squeeze any excess liquid out of the grated apples and place them in a medium bowl along with the cheese, heavy cream, and egg. Whisk together and set aside.
In a separate large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Pour the wet ingredients into the flour mixture and, working quickly, lightly knead the mixture just until it comes together.
Gather into a ball, transfer to a floured surface and roll out to a 6-inch (15 cm) circle, roughly 1¼-inch (3 cm) thick.
Cut the disc into 8 wedges, transfer to the parchment-lined baking sheet and brush the tops with egg wash.
Serve warm from the oven. Store leftover scones in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one day or in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Rewarm in a 300°F (150°C) oven for 10 minutes.
