Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 Tablespoon Baking Powder
  • 2 teaspoons White Sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/4 cup Butter (cold and cut into pieces)

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 400F.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, white sugar and salt.
  • Place butter in the dry mixture and use a large fork or pastry cutter to combine with the dry mixture until it resembles coarse sand.
  • Add 3/4 cup of the cheese, most of the bacon and most of the green onions, reserving some for garnish. Stir well to mix.
  • Add egg and 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream and stir together to form a cohesive dough.
  • Place the dough on a floured work surface and shape into a large circle, about 1" to 1 1/2" thick.
  • Cut the circle into 8 equal portions using a pizza slicer.
  • Place the scones on a cookie sheet lined with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.
  • Brush the tops of each scone with heavy whipping cream and garnish with cheese, bacon and onions.
  • Bake for 18-22 minutes, until lightly golden.
