Bacon, Pepper Jack, and Jalapeno Scones

I made these on Christmas morning to have with our quiche. Big hit! You can’t ever go wrong with bacon and jalapeños. These are moist and delicious. Definitely will be making them again in the near future. They will be awesome as a side for many different soups.

Incredibly thick and flavorful scones are loaded with bacon, pepper jack cheese, and diced jalapeno peppers! Moist and crumbly all at once, we love these with eggs, butter, and extra bacon slices. They're also delicious with nothing at all - straight from the pan.
