Bacon Egg And Cheddar Scones Recipes

BACON CHEDDAR SCONES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder. Use the large holes of a box grater to grate the butter into the flour mixture, tossing occasionally as you shred. Stir in the bacon, scallions, and cheese.
• In another bowl, whisk together the egg and half and half. Combine the two mixtures and blend until the flour is moistened. Do not overmix.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Pat it into a ½-inch-thick circle. Slice the round into 8 even wedges and transfer the scones to the prepared baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.
• Bake the scones until golden brown on the top and bottom, rotating the pan halfway through, about 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving.

BACON-CHEDDAR CHEESE SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a medium skillet, cook the bacon, stirring, until crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain well on paper towels. Into a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Cut in the butter, cheese, green onions, and pepper with a pastry blender or fork, and work just until it starts to form lumps and come together. Add the bacon. Add 1 cup of the cream and work just until it becomes a sticky dough, being careful not to overwork.
• Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and pat until it comes together. Form into 2 large circles, about 7 inches in diameter and 3/4 inch thick and cut each into 8 wedges with a sharp knife. Transfer to baking sheet with a spatula, leaving 1/2-inch space between each wedge. Paint the tops of the wedges lightly with the remaining 2 tablespoons of cream and bake until golden brown, 22 to 23 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly on the baking sheet. Serve warm.

BACON, EGG AND CHEDDAR SCONES

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.

• 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.

CHEESE & BACON SCONES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and grease a 12-hole muffin tin. In a frying pan over a medium heat, fry the bacon for 5 mins until golden. Let it cool, then chop into chunks and set aside
• In a bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and 1 tsp sea salt. Using your fingers, mix the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles breadcrumbs
• In a small bowl, whisk together the milk, oil and egg. Tip into the dry mixture, and gently mix until the flour mixture is mostly moistened (lumps will remain). Stir in the bacon, chives and cheese, then spoon the batter into the muffin tin.
• Put the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 20 mins or until the tops are golden brown. Serve warm.

BACON CHEDDAR SCONES

Steps:

• In the bowl of a stand mixer, add both flours, sugar, baking soda, and baking powder; mix on low speed to combine. Add butter, a little at a time, followed by salt. Continue to mix until the mixture has a "sandy" texture, about 5 minutes. Add heavy cream and crème fraîche, followed by the cheese, bacon, and chives. Continue mixing until just combined.
