Preparation Steps
1
Activate the yeast: in lukewarm milk, stir in sugar and yeast, then let stand for 10 minutes, until foamy.
2
In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt, then rub in the butter until evenly distributed and the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
3
Grate the garlic and mix it into the flour mixture, along with half of the grated cheese.
4
Add the sour cream, egg, and activated yeast, then knead the dough thoroughly until it comes together.
5
On a floured surface, roll out the dough to about 2 cm thickness, then fold it in thirds three times to create a flaky texture.
6
Cover with a kitchen towel and let rest for 30 minutes to allow the dough to rise slightly.
7
Roll out again to about 2 cm thickness, then use a scone cutter to cut out the shapes.
8
Place the scones on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and brush the tops with beaten egg.
9
Sprinkle the remaining grated cheese on top, then bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
10
Let cool slightly, then serve fresh, with a crispy exterior and a soft, crumbly interior.
