Low Carb Cheddar Bacon Onion Scones (Gluten Free)

These scones are inspired by a certain French bakery I used to work at. We baked off bacon cheddar onion scones daily and they were alway one of my favourites.

This low carb version is so close to the original, it’s hard to believe they are healthy! Anyways.. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
