⅔ cup buttermilk (alternatively, you can use ½ tablespoon lemon juice + ⅔ cup skim milk)
1 cup white cheddar cheese, shredded
½ cup green onion, chopped
freshly ground pepper,
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400.
In a large bowl, mix together flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut in butter until coarse clumps form.
Add eggs and buttermilk and mix until well combined. Stir in cheese and green onion.
Remove from bowl and transfer to a lightly floured surface. Knead with hands for 1-2 minutes until cheese and onions are well integrated into dough.
Shape dough into circle that is about 1 inch thick. Using a pastry cutter or a knife, divide in half. Cut each half into 4 triangles. Sprinkle with a little pepper. At this point, you can freeze the scones.
To bake, place scones on a parchment lined baking dish. Bake for 25 minutes (30-35 minutes if frozen).
