Provided by Joy Howard

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 ¼ cups flour, plus more for dusting
1 tablespoon sugar
½ teaspoon kosher salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter
4 slices cooked bacon, roughly chopped
2 scallions, minced
¾ cup shredded sharp cheddar
1 egg
¾ cup half and half

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder. Use the large holes of a box grater to grate the butter into the flour mixture, tossing occasionally as you shred. Stir in the bacon, scallions, and cheese.
  • In another bowl, whisk together the egg and half and half. Combine the two mixtures and blend until the flour is moistened. Do not overmix.
  • Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Pat it into a ½-inch-thick circle. Slice the round into 8 even wedges and transfer the scones to the prepared baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.
  • Bake the scones until golden brown on the top and bottom, rotating the pan halfway through, about 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving.

Categories     side-dish

Time 43m

Yield 16 scones

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 slices bacon, chopped
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 stick unsalted butter, cut into pieces
6 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, grated (about 1 1/2 cups)
1/2 cup thinly sliced green onions
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup heavy cream, plus 2 tablespoons

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • In a medium skillet, cook the bacon, stirring, until crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain well on paper towels. Into a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Cut in the butter, cheese, green onions, and pepper with a pastry blender or fork, and work just until it starts to form lumps and come together. Add the bacon. Add 1 cup of the cream and work just until it becomes a sticky dough, being careful not to overwork.
  • Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and pat until it comes together. Form into 2 large circles, about 7 inches in diameter and 3/4 inch thick and cut each into 8 wedges with a sharp knife. Transfer to baking sheet with a spatula, leaving 1/2-inch space between each wedge. Paint the tops of the wedges lightly with the remaining 2 tablespoons of cream and bake until golden brown, 22 to 23 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly on the baking sheet. Serve warm.

Tips:

  • Use cold butter and buttermilk for a flakier scone.
  • Do not overmix the dough, as this will result in tough scones.
  • Be sure to preheat your oven before baking the scones.
  • If you don't have a scone pan, you can use a muffin tin instead.
  • Serve the scones warm with your favorite toppings, such as butter, jam, or honey.
