This is a recipe that I saw in my recent TOH Magazine and posting here for safe keeping. The author of the recipe stated I grew up with this very popular Bacon Scone recipe in Scotland. It pairs great with a salad. Ingredients:
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour |
2 1/4 teaspoons baking powder |
1 teaspoon ground mustard |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
6 tablespoons cold butter |
2 eggs |
1/3 cup 2% low-fat milk |
1/2 cup onion, chopped (i would use green onion as other have) |
1/4 cup cheddar cheese, shredded |
6 bacon, strips cooked and crumbled, divided |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the first five ingredients. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a small bowl, whisk eggs and milk. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in the onion, cheese and two-thirds of the bacon.
2. Transfer dough to a greased baking sheet. Pat into a 7-1/2-in. circle. Cut into eight wedges, but do not separate. Sprinkle with remaining bacon. Bake at 400° for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.
