This has to be my favourite as while touring the speight's brewery in Dunedin we were told that all the yeast etc left over from each brew is sent to sanitarium to be made into marmite! But I do eat vegemite as well.

Sift flour, baking powder, salt and cayenne pepper and mustard into a bowl. cut butter in until it resembles fine breadcrumbs. add milk and mix quickly with a knife to a soft dough. Add cheese and knead a few times. lightly dust an oven tray with flour. Press scone dough out onto this. Cut into 12 even sized pieces. Leave a 2cm scape between scones. brush tops with milk. Bake at 220 degrees celsius for 10 minutes or until golden brown.

 

Sorry you'll have to convert from metric if necessary. Enjoy!

 

Vegemite is also yummy on toast with melted cheese on top.

P.S. The scone recipe is from the great kiwi classic, the edmonds cookbook, don't leave home without one.
