  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup shredded asiago cheese
  • 1 tablespoon cane sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 stick unsalted butter cold
  • 1 cup buttermilk plus 2 tablespoons
  • ⅓ cup squash puree

  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup buttermilk, squash puree, egg and chives.
  3. Cut butter into the dry mixture until it resembles coarse cornmeal. Stir in wet ingredients until just combined.
  4. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface, divide into two pieces and form each into 6-inch disks.
  5. Cut each disk into 6 wedges and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment. Brush scone tops with remaining buttermilk, and bake for 25 minutes or until edges are starting to turn golden. Enjoy!
