Print Recipe

Savory Bacon Cheddar Chive Scones that are flaky, rich, and perfect for any meal or snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup cold butter, cubed
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup cooked bacon, chopped
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh chives
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1 egg (for egg wash, optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt until well-combined.
  3. Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture and cut in until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Stir in the cheddar cheese, bacon, and chives gently.
  5. Slowly pour in the milk and stir until just combined.
  6. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead it about 3-4 times.
  7. Pat the dough into a 1-inch thick circle and cut it into wedges or use a biscuit cutter.
  8. Place the scones on a lined baking sheet and brush tops with optional egg wash.
  9. Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
  10. Let them cool slightly before serving warm.

Notes

Ensure your butter is very cold for flaky results. You can prepare the dough ahead of time.
