  FAB scones! I used parmesan instead of cheddar and they were delicious served with roasted red pepper and tomato soup.

  @Pippidoodle - I assumed plain wholemeal flour (on the basis that I would always use plain if a recipe didn't specify self raising). They are cooking now and smell wonderful, they are rising nicely too so I'm sure the flour I used is ok.

  One of my favourites! Great as an afternoon snack with butter and especially delicious straight from the oven. Marmite lovers can easily make it a BIG tablespoon ;-)

  Finally got around to making these on Saturday. I couldn't find a pastry cutter, so used a mug. It was the nearest I had. They came out a bit on the large side, so needed a bit longer. However, myself & my partner loved them. I'll definitely be making them again, just smaller.

  These were very tasty, although I didn't get much of the Marmite flavour so will add a little more next time. They were delicious buttered and served with tomato soup.

  Great. If you're a true Marmite lover, you can easily double the amount of Marmite in the recipe

  I made these today because my sister and I were having a movie night and we both love marmite, they were wonderful! Truth be told, they don't really taste that much like marmite but they have a DELICIOUS texture and we thoroughly enjoed them. Thank you!

  Someone here commented about having to use a mug as they didn't have a pastry cutter - necessity may be the mother of invention, but I would say cut the dough into squares or diamond shapes using a knife if you can't do circles! A mug or cup isn't going to give you a sharp edge so the scones can't rise properly. Anyway, these scones smelt lovely while cooking and have a 'twigletty' moreishness about them - savoury and light. I made them using the smallest of my pastry cutters and got 15 out of the dough, and they are perfect for nibbles with cheese and chutney.

  Lovely and very more-ish. I used wholemeal self-raising flour instead of the mix suggest, and I will add a little extra baking powder next time as they didn't rise very much, but they were still delicious and I'm going to have to bake another batch for tomorrow's picnic as these won't last!!

  I have made these twice - without the marmite - and they are delicious. We had them with soup, sausages, and even by themselves with butter. I added more than double the required milk, and they cooked for double the time, if not more. Very easy and certainly rewarding.
