Easy Cheese & Bacon Scones!!

Oh I do love a savoury Scone so these Easy Cheese & Bacon Scones are just the ticket. And why have a cheese scone when you can have a cheese AND bacon scone 🙂

I think I prefer savoury scones to sweet ones?!

How about you?

Don’t get me wrong I love Scones with Jam and clotted cream occasionally, but given the choice I usually plump for savoury!

I think these are so good and my Cheese scone recipe is good I promise!

Cheese Scones are divine but the addition of the smoky bacon – woah it just adds to it!

Sweet or Savoury scones?

I’m so much more of a savoury girl than I am sweet. I often wonder why that is?

Give me crisps over chocolate any day! Maybe I need to skip both 🙂 hey ho, but life is short….

My advice here with this lovely savoury cheese scone recipe is to try and use SMOKED bacon.

It gives the scones such a wonderful smokey flavour.

They are so simple and easy to make, why not ask the kids to make them?

Let them earn their keep 🙂

Lather them in butter and flipping enjoy!

I guarantee they won’t last long!

Tips for making Scones, cheese or sweet

So people are often scared of making scones? This I don’t really get?

They are so Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy 🙂

But there a a few tips:

Use very cold butter
Do not overwork – meaning just pull the dough together
Roll once – again don’t overwork
Brush only the tops with milk (not the sides)
And for these make sure you use some good strong Cheese

How to serve your Cheese & Bacon Scones

I’d say straight form the oven is the best and I’d also say – butter me up 🙂

So lastly how do you pronounce scone?

Oh so many views!

There are two possible pronunciations of the word scone:

the first rhymes with gone and the second rhymes with tone.

In US English the pronunciation rhyming with tone is more common.

In British English the two pronunciations traditionally have different regional and class associations, with the first pronunciation associated with the north of England and the northern working class, while the second is associated with the south and the middle class….

So which are you? 🙂
