Servings 10 scones

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 6 tablespoons cold butter cut into pieces
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 3 green onions ends trimmed and chopped
  • 4 ounces small diced ham
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper or a Silpat liner, set aside.
  • In a large bowl whisk together flour, salt, and baking powder.
  • Using your hands work the cold butter into the flour until it's crumbly and the flour is moistened. You can also use a pastry blender.
  • Stir in shredded cheese, green onions, and ham into the flour mixture.
  • In a small bowl whisk together eggs, sour cream, and mustard.
  • Add the egg mixture to the flour and mix together until the dough just comes together. The dough will be sticky.
  • On a kitchen counter (or large wooden cutting board) sprinkle with lots of flour so the dough will not stick. Coat your hands in flour as well.
  • Dump the dough onto the counter and pat the mixture into 10 inches long by a 2-inch wide rectangle. Cut the dough into 5 squares and then cut each square diagonally.
  • Add the scones to the prepared baking sheet, leaving 1 inch between each scone.
  • Brush heavy cream onto the top of each scone and bake for about 20 minutes until slightly browned and fully cooked.
