## Ingredients

- 250 grams plain or all-purpose flour
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper

3. Give that a little stir.
4. Add 85 grams of cubed butter.
5. Rub the butter into the flour by lifting up and squeezing the flour into the butter until you have a coarse breadcrumb.
6. Add 120 grams of grated red cheddar cheese and two tablespoons of Parmesan.
7. Gently rub the cheese through to make sure all the cheese is coated in some flour.
8. Add one finely chopped scallion or some dried chives.
9. Add three level tablespoons of sugar.
10. Add 240 grams of buttermilk and two beaten eggs.
11. Finally, add either a teaspoon of salt or Aromat.
12. Stir until it comes together, stopping as soon as it's fully combined, even if it looks a bit shaggy.
13. Add it into a buttered loaf tin partially lined with non-stick tin foil.
14. Pop into a preheated oven at 180 degrees Celsius for approximately 50 to 60 minutes until it's lovely and golden brown and a skewer comes out nice and clean.
