Onion Scones


Ingredients
1 yellow onion (chopped)
1/3 cup green onion (chopped)
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1/3 cup butter
2 cups flour
1/3 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup light cream
1 egg (beaten)
butter

Directions
  1. Gather the ingredients together.
  2. Preheat the oven to 400° F.
  3. In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the yellow onion, green onions, garlic, and butter. Microwave on high for 2 minutes, then stir this mixture.
  4. Microwave for another 1 to 2 minutes or until the vegetables are tender. Remove the bowl from the microwave and let the vegetables cool for 10 minutes.
  5. Combine the flour, cheese, sugar, baking powder, pepper, and salt in a large bowl and stir to mix.
  6. Add the sautéed onion mixture to the flour mixture along with all of the melted butter, light cream, and egg. Stir just until combined with a spoon.
  7. Gently press the dough together with your hands to form a ball.
  8. On an ungreased cookie sheet, press the dough into an 8-inch circle. Cut the circle into 8 wedges, like you were cutting a pie. Separate the wedges slightly.
  9. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until the scones are lightly browned.
  10. Brush with more melted butter and serve immediately. 
Notes: It is nice to have a few savory options when making scones. I really enjoyed these but the kids weren't super big fans.
