Parmesan Scones

By

These scones can be made earlier in the day and reheated before serving.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium yellow onion, chopped - 3/4 cup
  • 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese - 4 ounces
  • 2 cups biscuit baking mix such as Bisquick
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon heavy cream

Preparation

Step 1

Heat oven to 400 degrees. Coat a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray.

In a small skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add onion. Sauté 5 minutes or until translucent. Remove from heat.

Set aside 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese for top. Place remaining Parmesan in a large bowl with biscuit mix.

In a small bow., with fork, beat egg with 1/3 cup heavy cream until blended. Stir in onion and egg into the dry mixture until soft dough forms.

Knead 10 times; shape into ball. Place on prepared baking sheet. Pat into an 8 inch round. Cut into 8 wedges, but do not separate.

Brush top with remaining 1 tablespoon heavy cream. Sprinkle with reserved cheese.

Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes or until golden brown. Cut through wedges; separate. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Note; After baking, I separated the wedges and left them on the sheet, covered with Saran Wrap. Uncover and reheat at 325 degrees for about 10 minutes.
