Servings: persons

6 ounces self-raising flour
2 ounces whole wheat flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon mustard powder
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
3 ounces feta, cubed small
10 black olives, pitted and roughly chopped
2 ounces sun-dried tomatoes, drained of oil and chopped (reserve 1 tablespoon oil)
1 large egg
2 tablespoons milk
For the topping
milk, for brushing
2 ounces feta, crumbled

1
First sift the flours and baking powder into a large bowl, tip in any bran left in the sieve, then add the cayenne and mustard powder and, using a knife, work in the 2 tablespoons of olive oil, plus the reserved tablespoon of oil from the sun-dried tomatoes.
2
When the mixture looks like lumpy breadcrumbs stir in the chopped thyme, cubed Feta, olives and sun-dried tomatoes.
3
Now in a separate bowl beat the egg with the 2 tablespoons of milk and add half this mixture to the other ingredients.
4
Using your hands, bring the mixture together to form a dough, adding more of the egg and milk as it needs it - what you should end up with is a dough that is soft but not sticky.
5
On a floured board, roll the dough out to a depth of 1 inch (do not roll it out thinner they might not rise well) stamp out the scones using a 2 inch cutter, plain or fluted.
6
Put the cut-out pieces on a baking tray and brush them with the milk.
7
Finally top each scone with the crumbled Feta, and put the tray on the highest shelf of the oven to bake for 12-15 minutes or until they've turned a golden colour.
8
Then remove them to a wire rack to cool.
