FOR THE SCONES:
3/4 cups Cold Butter, Shredded*
2 cups All-purpose Flour
1 cup White Whole Wheat Flour
1/4 cups Brown Sugar
5 teaspoons Baking Powder
1/2 teaspoons Salt
1 cup Buttermilk
1 whole Egg
1/4 cups Pure Maple Syrup
5 slices Bacon, Cooked And Chopped
1/4 cups Flour, Reserved For Preparing Scones
_____
FOR THE GLAZE:
2 Tablespoons Melted Butter (for Glaze)
2 Tablespoons Pure Maple Syrup (for Glaze)
1 Tablespoon Powdered Sugar (for Glaze)
1/4 cups Whipping Cream (For Glaze)
2 pieces Bacon, Cooked And Chopped For Garnish

1
Preheat oven to 350.
2
Using a cheese grater, shred your sticks of butter into a large bowl. Once butter is shredded place bowl in freezer to chill. (I learned this trick recently in Marcy Goldman's book: Passion for Baking)
3
In a food processor, combine flours, sugar, baking powder and salt. Add chilled butter and pulse until incorporated and sandy consistency is reached. Transfer mixture to a large bowl.
4
Create a well in the center of the flour mixture and add milk, egg and maple syrup. Using a wooden spoon, mix until combined. Fold in chopped bacon.
5
Sprinkle about half of reserved flour over top of mixture.
6
Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface. Knead dough into a large circle, sprinkling with extra flour when necessary. Cut circle into 8 large triangles.
7
Transfer dough triangles to parchment paper lined baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes or until slightly browned.
8
While scones are baking, make Maple Glaze: Mix all glaze ingredients together until smooth. Cover and set aside.
9
When they are done baking, transfer scones to cooling rack. Drizzle with glaze. Garnish with extra bacon.
