2 cups(241g) all-purpose flour
4 tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt

1 cup cheddar cheese, grated
4tsp(57g) unsalted butter at room temperature
⅔ cup whole milk

Preheat oven 220c or 420F
In a food processor, pulse the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar until fully combined.
Add the butter and pulse 10 times until the butter becomes a sandy texture.
In a large bowl, combine egg and milk. Save 2 tbsp in another bowl. Then pour the rest into the food processor and mix until a rough dough forms.
Transfer to a lightly floured countertop, mix scallion, bacon and cheddar cheese. Knead about 10 times until the dough comes together into a relatively smooth ball.

Place the scones onto a baking sheet and brush with egg wash.
