How to Make Bacon Egg And Cheddar Scones

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
3. Cut in 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese, 4 large eggs, 1/2 cup milk, and 1/4 cup chopped cooked bacon.
5. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
6. Fold in 1/2 cup more shredded cheddar cheese and 1/4 cup more cooked bacon.
7. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each scone.
8. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
9. Let cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving. Enjoy immediately or freeze for later.
