INGREDIENTS

4 slices cooked bacon, chopped

3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour

1 tbsp baking powder

1 tbsp sugar

1 tsp salt

1 stick cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes

1 ½ cups sharp cheddar cheese, grated (approx 6 oz)

4 green onion, thinly sliced

Freshly ground pepper to taste

1 cup heavy cream + 2 tbsp for brushing the scones before baking

PREPARATION

Arrange the oven racks to accommodate two pans, and, heat the oven in the Convection or Convection Bake mode to 375 F and prepare the baking sheets.

Sift the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt into a large mixing bowl. Cut in the butter with two forks or a pastry blender, then add the cheese, green onion, and black pepper and work just until the mixture begins to come together. Stir in the cooked chopped bacon and 1 cup of cream and work until it becomes a sticky dough. Dribble in a little more cream or half and half if the mixture is too dry and crumbly.

Turn the mixture onto a lightly floured surface and pat it into a large round. Cut the dough in half and form two 7” circles about ¾” thick. Cut each circle into 8 wedges and transfer the wedges to a baking sheet, leaving ½” space between each one. Brush the tops of the wedges with the extra cream and slide the trays into the oven.

Bake for 18 - 22 minutes until golden. Check underneath to ensure they are baked through. Remove from the oven and cool on the baking sheets for 5 - 8 minutes, then transfer the scones to a cooling rack. Once cool, they can be stored in an airtight container.
