How to make
-
STEP 1
To caramelize onions, melt 1 tablespoon Butter with Olive Oil & Sea Salt in 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add onions, 1/8 teaspoon salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 30-40 minutes or until onions are golden brown and reduced to 1/2 cup. (Reduce heat, if necessary, to keep from burning.) Remove from heat; cool completely. Coarsley chop onions; set aside.
-
STEP 2
Heat oven to 400°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper; set aside.
-
STEP 3
Combine flour, baking powder, 1 teaspoon salt and baking soda in large bowl. Cut in 2/3 cup Butter with Olive Oil & Sea Salt with pastry blender or fork until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in caramelized onions, cheese and green onions. Stir in 2/3 cup buttermilk just until moistened.
-
STEP 4
Pat dough into 8-inch circle. Cut into 8 wedges. Place onto prepared baking sheets. Brush tops with buttermilk.
-
STEP 5
Bake 18-20 minutes or until bottoms are golden brown and sides of scones are set.
Tip #1
If onions are overbrowning and sticking to pan, deglaze with 2-4 tablespoons chicken broth as onions are cooking.
Tip #2
Unbaked scones can be frozen up to 3 months. To bake, heat oven to 400°F. Remove scones from freezer; place directly onto parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake 20-22 minutes.
Tip #3
If dough mixture is dry, add 1 to 2 tablespoons buttermilk.
