Yield Makes 24 wedges

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 large white onions, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons (packed) golden brown sugar
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 tablespoons chopped golden raisins
8 5 1/2x3x1/2-inch slices rustic country bread, such as walnut, pecan, or walnut-raisin
2 6-ounce wedges soft blue cheese (such as Cambazola, rind trimmed, or Gorgonzola dolcelatte), sliced
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter, room temperature

Steps:

  • Heat oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add onions; cook until just beginning to color, stirring often, about 20 minutes. Add sugar and cook until onions are deep golden brown and very soft, stirring occasionally, about 25 minutes. Remove from heat. Mix in vinegar and raisins. Season caramelized onions to taste with salt and pepper. Cool. (Can be made 3 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
  • Arrange 4 bread slices on work surface. Top with cheese, dividing equally. Top each with 1/4 cup caramelized onions. Top with remaining bread slices to form 4 sandwiches. Spread half of butter over tops of sandwiches. Heat heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add sandwiches, buttered side down. Spread remaining butter over tops of bread. Partially cover and cook until bottoms are brown, about 3 minutes. Turn sandwiches over. Cook until second sides brown, about 3 minutes. Transfer to cutting board. Cut each sandwich into 6 wedges.

Tips:

  • Use cold butter: This will help to create flaky layers in the scones.
  • Don't overwork the dough: Overworking the dough will result in tough scones.
  • Be patient: Scones take a little time to rise, so don't rush the process.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the scones: This will help to create clean, even cuts.
  • Bake the scones until they are golden brown: This will ensure that they are cooked through.

Conclusion:

Blue cheese and caramelized onion scones are a delicious and savory treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Whether you are a seasoned baker or a novice in the kitchen, you are sure to love this recipe. So what are you waiting for? Give it a try today!
