Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 220 °C and line a baking tray.
  2. Mix the flour, baking powder, salt, mustard and pepper.
  3. Rub in the cold diced butter until the texture resembles breadcrumbs.
  4. Stir in three quarters of the grated cheese, keeping the rest for the top.
  5. Add the beaten egg with the milk and mix just enough to form a dough.
  6. Roll out to 2 cm, cut rounds, place on the tray, sprinkle with the remaining cheese and bake for 12 to 15 minutes.

Variations and tips

Smoked paprika. Add a pinch of smoked paprika to the dough for a bit more warmth.
