PPQ – Bacon and Cheddar Scones
March 6, 2011 in breakfast
I am really trying to get back into the blogging swing of things, especially when it comes to Project Pastry Queen but wouldn’t you know that I confused myself and did last week’s recipe this week? Very sorry to Shawnda who chose a delicious-looking chicken salad for this week’s recipe and a thanks to Mariana who chose these bacon and cheddar scones for last week’s. Next week I promise to be back on track!
About the scones…
Bacon, cheddar, green onions, and butter. You can’t go wrong. I am typically not a fan of savory pastries because they aren’t as moist as the sweet ones but the flavors in this recipe make up for the (expected) dryness of the scone. And bonus points to these scones for having so much cheese that some was forced to ooze out and burn a little bit – that’s always my favorite part of any recipe with cheese.
I had these guys in and out of the oven and on the table within an hour so they made the perfect weekend morning breakfast. The recipe also halved well for anyone who doesn’t want 10 scones lying around the kitchen!
Be sure to visit Mariana for the recipe!
I do love me some burnt/brown cheese and these scones look delicious! I expect that when smeared with a pat of butter or even some jam, the whole moistness dilemma will cease to be an issue. They look great!
I’m very easily won over by anything that involves bacon and cheese. This is no exception! ;)
Yea, I know its lunch time but thinking this would be very tasty with a spinach salad….
Looks delish

Yum Yum Yum. I love a change up every now and again with a savory treat.. these sound fabulous!
I love your photos, they look sooo good! Thanks for making the recipe and for the link. I’m glad you enjoyed them! I’ve already made them three times and the people in my office keep begging me to make them some more! =P
Bacon and cheddar are like a marriage made in Heaven.
