4
Cut the butter and cream cheese into small cubes and mix them with the dry ingredients.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Keep Ingredients Ice Cold ❄️Chill your butter and cream cheese in the freezer for 15-20 minutes before cutting into flour—this creates flaky layers and prevents tough, dense scones.
- Don't Overwork the Dough 🙌Mix the dough until just combined; overmixing develops gluten and results in chewy scones instead of tender, crumbly ones with a delicate crumb structure.
- Toast Everything Seasoning First 🔥Lightly toast the everything bagel seasoning in a dry skillet for 1-2 minutes before adding to enhance its savory, aromatic qualities and prevent the flavors from becoming muted during baking.
- Egg Wash for Golden Perfection ✨Brush scones with the egg white mixture and sprinkle extra everything seasoning on top just before baking to create a beautiful golden crust and amplify the signature flavor.
- Test Doneness Carefully ⏱️Scones are done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the tops are golden—avoid overbaking beyond 15-18 minutes, which can dry them out.
