Bacon Cheese and Scallion Scones Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F. Lightly grease a baking sheet, or line it with parchment.
  • 1) Whisk together the flour, salt, baking powder, and sugar.
  • 2) Work the butter into the flour until the mixture is unevenly crumbly.
  • 3) Mix in the cheese, chives, and bacon till evenly distributed.
  • 4) Add ¾ cup of the cream, stirring to combine. Try squeezing the dough together; if it’s crumbly and won’t hang together, or if there are crumbs remaining in the bottom of the bowl, add cream until the dough comes together. Transfer the shaggy dough to a well-floured work surface.
  • 5) Pat the dough into a smooth 7" disk about ¾" thick. Transfer the disk to the prepared baking sheet.
  • 6) Use a knife or bench knife to cut the disk into 8 wedges, spreading the wedges apart a bit on the pan.
  • 7) Brush the scones with a bit of cream; this will help their crust brown.
  • 8) Bake the scones for 22 to 24 minutes, until they’re golden brown. Remove them from the oven, and cool right on the pan. Serve warm, or at room temperature.
  • Yield: 8 large scones
