How to make Quiche Lorraine Scones

Provided by @MakeItYours

Number Of Ingredients 1

2 cups + 1 teaspoon all-purpose flour, divided 1 tablespoon baking powder Pinch cayenne pepper Dash nutmeg 1 teaspoon salt 8 tablespoons cold butter, diced ½ cup half-and-half 2 eggs 4 ounces Swiss cheese, diced 3 green onions, thinly sliced 7 s

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Prepare the bacon, onion and cheese. Toss these ingredients together with 1 teaspoon flour; set aside.
  • In a medium sized bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, cayenne, nutmeg and salt. Cut in the butter with a pastry blender or two knives until the butter is pea-size. With a fork, lightly beat the eggs and half-and-half and add to the flour mixture. Add the bacon, onion and cheese mixture. Using a wooden spoon, fold mixture until it begins to come together.
  • Turn out the dough onto a well-floured surface and knead gently for less than one minute. Pat dough to ¾ to 1-inch thick and cut using 3-inch biscuit cutter (for large scones) or cut into squares or triangles. Place the scones on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops of the scones with the egg wash.
  • Bake for approximately 20 minutes, or until golden brown.
