Nothing beats a delicious homemade scone, especially when it's still warm from the oven. The classic British treat comes in a variety of different flavours, with savoury ones being hugely popular. They're great paired with a cup of tea, or even as a side dish for salads.
And according to one recipe creator on TikTok , you only need two key ingredients to make your own at home. One of these is a very popular yet unusual kitchen staple you might have never considered putting in scones - hummus. The Caketoonist says you can make your own scones at home using just hummus, flour and baking powder, with the results being 'so delicious'.
These three ingredients serve as the base but you can add any other additions you like, such as cheese or chives. She also used caramelised onion hummus in her recipe , but any flavour will do. People in the video's comments were blown away at the simplicity, with one saying: "OMG this is genius.
I always buy hummus with the best intentions, but ultimately always end up throwing half of it away." Here's everything you need for this recipe , which makes around four scones. Ingredients 160g hummus of your choice 65g plain flour Tsp baking powder Any additional toppings - for example grated cheese or chives Method First, preheat your oven to 200C.
Then, add the hummus to a bowl, and add in your optional extra ingredients at this point too. Add the flour and baking powder and give it a good mix to combine, using a table knife to do so. When everything has come together, roll the dough into a ball and put on a floured surface - it should be soft but not sticky.
Pat it out into a 'cuboid sausage' shape and cut into four equal pieces. Place on a lined baking tray and bake in the middle of the oven for around 10 minutes until nice and golden. You can either wait until they have cooled completely, or serve them warm with plenty of butter spread in the middle.
