Delicious Maple Bacon Scones Recipe for Breakfast

Ingredients

Servings:
12
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup cold unsalted butter (cut into small pieces)
  • 1 cup cooked bacon (crumbled)
  • 1 cup maple syrup
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup maple sugar
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

8 steps

  1. Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    Ensure the oven is fully preheated for even baking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

    Sift the dry ingredients for a lighter texture.
  3. Cut in Butter

    Add the cold butter pieces and cut them into the flour mixture until crumbly.

    Use a pastry cutter or your fingers for best results.
  4. Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together bacon, maple syrup, buttermilk, egg, and vanilla.

    Make sure the egg is at room temperature to blend well.
  5. Mix Wet and Dry

    Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and combine until just mixed.

    Do not overmix; some lumps are okay.
  6. Shape the Scones

    Turn the dough onto a floured surface and pat into a circle about 1 inch thick.

    Use a sharp knife to cut into wedges for clean edges.
  7. Bake

    Place scones on a baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes until golden.

    Check for doneness by tapping the bottom; it should sound hollow.
  8. Cool and Serve

    Allow scones to cool slightly before serving warm.

    Serve with additional maple syrup if desired.
