ingredients
- 3 cups self-rising flour, plus more for work surface
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon cracked black pepper
- 1⁄2 cup cold butter
- 1 1⁄2 cups grated sharp cheddar cheese
- 4 green onions, thinly sliced
- 10 slices bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled
- 1 1⁄4 cups buttermilk
- 1 large egg, for egg wash
- 1 tablespoon coarse sea salt
directions
- 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.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
<p> I'm a mom to 4 little ones including a preemie & my oldest with Epilepsy. I was born and raised in Sarasota Florida. (A native & not many of us left here). I love to find recipes that I can just whip together at a moments notice. I have also fell in love with my crock pot and looking for new recipes to use in it. I love Southern cooking & baking. I like finding new recipes to try out on my family of very picky eaters.I would love to learn to bake more. I can do the basics, but would love to be able to make more homemade goodies such as breads, etc.. My family inspires me to cook, but it is also relaxing for me. My hobbies, are cooking (of course), scrapbooking( beginner), arts and crafts with the kids (esp. around the holidays) I love, LOVE the holiday season!! (From Halloween to Easter)</p>
