Parmesan And Caramelized Onion Cream Scones

If you make scones on a regular basis you might want to give this a try, they are delicious and best served warm. Try not to over-knead these or they will be tough. Plan ahead the dough needs to chill for a minimum of 2 hours before shaping. Prep time does not include cooking the onions.

Steps

See my recipe #89007 for caramelized onions and prepare as directed for 1 large onion using about 2-3 tablespoons oil in place of butter.
Set oven to 375f.
Set oven rack to middle position.
Season the caramelized onions with salt and pepper.
In a bowl , mix flour , baking powder and coarse salt in a large mixing bowl.
Stir / mix in the parmesan cheese.
Stir in the caramelized onions.
Mix to combine.
Gradually add in whipping cream , stirring until dough holds together.
Knead gently about 5-6 times on a very lightly-floured surface.
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for a minimum of 2 hours to relax the gluten.
When ready to bake , divide the dough in half , and sprinkle each half lightly with flour if too sticky.
Pat each half into a 1-inch thick round shape.
Cut into 6 even wedges and transfer wedges to a large lightly-greased baking sheet.
Bake for about 20 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and they test done.
