Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 cup cold butter, grated using the large holes on a box grater and frozen
1 cup shredded white cheddar cheese
1/2 cup cooked crumbled bacon
1/2 cup thinly sliced scallions
3/4 cup milk
1 large egg, lightly beaten

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Cut in butter and work into flour with fingers until pea-sized clumps form. Stir in cheese, bacon, and scallions.
Drizzle in milk and egg and fold mixture until a shaggy dough forms. Turn dough out onto a floured surface and knead several times until dough just comes together.
Form dough into a 1-in high circle and cut into eight wedges. Place wedges 1-in apart on prepared baking sheets. Bake scones at 400F 18-20 minutes or until a deep golden brown. Let cool 5 minutes then serve warm. Enjoy!
