- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine egg and buttermilk in a bowl.
- Place flour, Oka Crème, butter, baking powder, sugar, salt, and pepper in a food processor, and pulse ingredients 4 to 6 times in a row to combine.
- Add liquid mixture, and pulse another 2 to 3 times in a row.
- Pour mixture into a bowl and add shallots, bacon, and shredded Oka.
- Mix dough by hand, shape into a ball, and refrigerate.
- Make sure dough is cold to make cutting the scones easier. Roll cold dough into a rectangle about 2.5 cm (1 in.) thick, then cut into 8 triangular scones.
- Place scones on baking sheet and bake on oven’s middle rack for 15 to 20 minutes.
Chef’s secret
Serve scones with Oka Crème, jam, yogurt, or even soup.
