Quiche Lorraine Scones

Gah!
That was a nail-biting game for the Patriots.
I really wasn't sure they were going to pull it off!

There were only 4 of us in the room watching the game, and I could hear each of our hearts thumping.
Or...it could have just been mine multiplied.

OMG
We are off to the big game!

Feb 4th I will be in a house with 30 friends and family.
I have the feeling we would manage to set blood pressure records.
(do we remember last year, holy schnikes!)







Ingredients:
2 Cups + 1 Tsp flour (divided)
1 Tbsp baking powder
Pinch Cayenne powder
Dash Nutmeg
1 Tsp Salt
8 Tbsp Butter (cold, diced)
½ Cup Half and Half
2 Eggs
4 oz Swiss cheese
3 Green onions (thinly sliced)
7 Strips bacon (cooked and crumbled)
Egg wash (1 egg beaten with 1 Tsp water)

1. Preheat oven to 400
2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper
3. Prepare bacon, onion, and cheese
4. Toss those ingredients with 1 Tsp flour, set aside
