Buttery and savory.

Provided by janet

Time 45m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 cups all-purpose flour
1 ⅓ cups white sugar
2 tablespoons baking powder
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1 cup unsalted butter, cubed
1 ½ cups heavy cream
⅓ cup maple syrup
4 slices cooked bacon, chopped
2 cups powdered sugar
2 tablespoons maple syrup
2 tablespoons milk

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Combine flour, sugar, 2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Add butter and cut in with your hands or a pastry blender until crumbly with all pieces of butter smaller than a small bean. (You can use a food processor.) Make a small well in the center of the mixture.
  • Pour cream, maple syrup, and chopped bacon into the well. Combine with your hands, working quickly so butter does not melt, until the dough sticks together. Divide dough into 12 equal portions. Roll and gently press each portion into a scone about the size of your palm; place on a baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until tops spring back when lightly touched, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer to a wire rack.
  • Mix powdered sugar, maple syrup, and milk for glaze together in a bowl until smooth. Drizzle over scones.
