Ingredients
3 c. all-purpose flour
1 tbsp. granulated sugar
1 tbsp. baking powder
1 tsp. kosher salt
1/2 c. (1 stick) cold butter, cut into cubes
Desired mix-ins
3/4 c. buttermilk, plus more as needed
2 large eggs
1/2 c. freshly grated Parmesan
1/2 c. freshly grated Pecorino
1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
1 c. shredded mozzarella
2 tbsp. thinly sliced basil
1 c. shredded cheddar
1/2 c. chopped cooked bacon
2 tbsp. sliced green onions or chives
1 c. crumbled goat cheese
2 tbsp. freshly chopped rosemary
Preparation
Step 1Line a large baking sheet with parchment. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add butter and use your hands to cut into flour until the size of peas. Add mix-ins and toss to coat in flour. Step 2In a small bowl or glass measuring cup, whisk together buttermilk and eggs. Add to dry ingredients and use a rubber spatula to mix until a dough starts to form. Add more buttermilk, 1 tablespoon at a time, as needed to help dough form. Step 3Dump dough onto counter and gently pat into an 8” circle. Use a knife or bench scraper to cut into 8 triangles. Place on prepared baking sheet and freeze for 30 minutes. Step 4Preheat oven to 400°. Bake scones until golden, 20 minutes.
