Ham and Cheese Scones

Steps

1. 1Preheat oven to 400°(F). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
2. 2In a large bowl add the flour, salt, pepper, baking powder, baking soda, and brown sugar; mix well to combine. Cut the butter into small cubes then quickly work it into the mixture (using your fingers) until it resembles a coarse meal. Set aside. In a small bowl whisk together the egg, yogurt, and milk, beating well to combine. Add the liquid mixture to dry and use a fork to stir everything together until just moistened.
3. 3Add in the cheese, ham, and scallions and gently fold them into dough with a spatula.
4. 4Pour the shaggy dough out onto a clean, floured work surface and shape the dough into an 8-inch circle. Cut the dough into 8 wedges and carefully transfer to the prepared sheet.
5. 5Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden brown.
6. 6Cool for 5 minutes on the tray, then serve warm.
