Step 1

Whisk the flour, baking powder, salt, and scallions in a large bowl. Fold in grated cheese and bacon bits.

Step 2

Add one cup of heavy cream to the dry ingredients and gently mix until the cream has been completely absorbed. Add in the remaining ¼ cup of heavy cream. Mix just until combined.

Step 3

Lightly knead the dough on a lightly floured surface. With lightly floured hands, form dough into a slightly flattened circle about 1 in thick.

Step 4

Using a bench scraper or knife, cut evenly into 8 triangles. Separate and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving space between them.

Step 5

Refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.

Step 6

Preheat oven to 400° F. Brush scones with heavy cream. Bake for 15-20 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through baking, until golden brown and firm. Remove from pan. Allow the scones to cool before eating.
