Peanut Butter And Bacon Scones Recipes

PEANUT BUTTER AND BACON SCONES

Steps:

• 1. Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• 2. Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Remove from the skillet onto a paper towel-lined plate. Strain the bacon fat and reserve.
• 3. Whisk the flour, 2 tablespoons of the confectioners' sugar, baking soda and salt together in a large bowl. In another bowl, whisk the buttermilk, peanut butter and 1 tablespoon bacon fat until smooth. Add the chopped bacon.
• 4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and quickly mix with a rubber spatula to form a dough. Turn the dough out onto a clean work surface and pat into a circle, about 9 inches wide. Cut into 8 wedges. Evenly space the wedges on the prepared baking sheet.
• 5. Combine 1 teaspoon bacon fat with the milk and remaining 4 tablespoons confectioners' sugar in a small bowl. Brush some the glaze on top of each scone (there will be some left). Sprinkle with the chopped peanuts. Place the baking sheet on the top rack in the oven. Bake until the tops are lightly golden, about 15 minutes. Transfer the scones to a rack and brush with the remaining glaze while they cool. Serve warm or at room temperature.

BACON SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°. In a large bowl, combine first five ingredients. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a small bowl, whisk eggs and milk. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in onion, cheese and two-thirds of the bacon., Transfer dough to a greased baking sheet. Pat into a 7-1/2-in. circle. Cut into eight wedges, but do not separate. Sprinkle with remaining bacon. Bake 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.

MAPLE-BACON SCONES

Steps:

• Combine flour, sugar, 2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Add butter and cut in with your hands or a pastry blender until crumbly with all pieces of butter smaller than a small bean. (You can use a food processor.) Make a small well in the center of the mixture.
• Pour cream, maple syrup, and chopped bacon into the well. Combine with your hands, working quickly so butter does not melt, until the dough sticks together. Divide dough into 12 equal portions. Roll and gently press each portion into a scone about the size of your palm; place on a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until tops spring back when lightly touched, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer to a wire rack.
