Directions
Pepper Jack & Green Onion Mini Scones, UPDATED 04/03/10: Thanks Tea Jenny, for bringing the omission to my attention! The original recipe did in fact call for 1 TBL of Baking Powder! I’ve been making them without it in the Mini Scone Pan and it didn’t seem to make much difference, but for nicely formed scones shaped by hand or with a biscuit cutter, it’s a must! I adapted this recipe from one called Quiche Lorraine Scones on the goodLife {eats} blog I wanted to make a meatless, savory scone, suitable for my Nordic Ware Mini Scone Pan The pan is not necessary as you can easily pat the dough into a circle and cut into wedges or use a biscuit cutter These scones are quick and easy to make and keep in the fridge for 5-6 days Reheat in microwave for just a few seconds to take the chill off Enjoy with Soup, Chili, for Breakfast, as a Snack anytime!
