Bacon Egg And Cheddar Scones Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F.
• Combine flour and baking powder in large bowl. Cut in butter with pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
• Whisk 2 eggs and half-and-half in medium bowl until blended. Add to flour mixture; stir just until moistened. Stir in cheese, bacon and chives. Shape into ball.
• Knead dough on lightly floured surface 10 times. Roll out to 12x6-inch rectangle. Cut into 8 (3-inch) squares; cut each square diagonally in half. Place, 2 inches apart, on baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray. Whisk remaining egg and water until blended; brush over dough triangles.
• Bake 14 to 16 min. or until scones are lightly browned. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Note before you get started: Shredding or cubing the cheese depends on personal preference; the shredded blends into the pastry, but the cubed leaves little chunks of cheese throughout. I'm a Libra, so I do both. (shred half and cube half ,-)
• Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Lightly butter a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.
• Sift the flour, baking powder, and salt together. Place in either a medium bowl or the work bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade. Cut the butter into the flour so that it is completely incorporated, using two knives, a pastry blender, your hands, or food processor until incorporated.
• Beat 2 of the raw eggs and the cream together and add to the dry ingredients. Mix or process just to incorporate the eggs into the flour and butter; do not overmix. Dump the flour-and-butter mixture into a clean bowl.
• Fold the cheese, scrambled eggs, and bacon into the flour mixture. It will be sticky and chunky. Stir and knead the dough as little as possible while distributing the cheese, scrambled eggs, and bacon throughout.
• Transfer the dough to a well-floured work surface. Pat the dough into a rectangle about 12 x 4 x 3/4 inch high. Cut the dough into three 4-inch squares. Cut the squares on the diagonal to form six triangles. Place the scones at least 1 inch apart on the baking sheet.
• Beat the remaining 1 egg with 2 tablespoons water and use this wash to brush the tops of the scones.
• Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove and serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Mix flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Cut butter into flour mixture with your hands or a fork until the mixture resembles coarse cornmeal. Stir in cheese, green onions, pecans, pepper and bacon until well mixed. Add cream and stir until dough forms, being careful not to overwork.
• Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and press until it holds together. Flatten into 2 circles, about 7 inches in diameter and 3/4-inch thick and cut each circle into 8 wedges with a sharp knife. Transfer to a parchment paper lined baking sheet, leaving a little space between each wedge. Bake until golden brown, 22 to 23 minutes. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Add the flour, salt, and pepper to a large bowl. With a box grater, grate the butter into the flour. Mix the butter into flour with your hands until well incorporated. Add the cheese, green onion and crumbled bacon. Mix until evenly distributed. Add the buttermilk and mix with a wooden spoon until the mixture forms a stiff dough.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. With a rolling pin, roll the dough into a rectangle a 1/2-inch thick. Cut wedges of dough out to preferred scone size and arrange on a half sheet tray lined with parchment paper.
• In a small bowl, beat the egg and brush each scone with the egg wash. Sprinkle with a little coarse sea salt and bake until nicely browned, about 14 to 16 minutes. Remove from the oven and arrange on a serving platter.

Steps:

• Preheat the grill on a medium flame.
• Using a medium sized bowl, mix flour, sugar, salt, onions, and bacon together. Let the mixture rise for about 30 minutes.
• Then add the eggs, buttermilk, and cheese. Continue mixing until a firm dough is formed. If the dough becomes a little watery, just add a little more flour.
• Place the dough on the counter and with sprinkle with flour. Then flatten it out with your hands. Using a circular cookie cutter, cut out 2-inch rounds.
• Line a small pan with parchment paper, and place the cut outs in the pan. Sprinkle desired amount of cheese on top and place the pan on a grill, lid closed, for 15 minutes.
• To plate, slice in half and spread with butter, or preferred topping.
