Glazed Ginger Scones
- 2 cups All-purpose Flour
- 3/4 cups Sugar
- 1 Tablespoon Baking Powder
- 1/2 teaspoons Salt
- 1/2 teaspoons Pumpkin Pie Spice
- 1/4 teaspoons Cinnamon
- 1 stick Unsalted Butter
- 3 Tablespoons Fresh Ginger, Grated
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla
- 1 whole Egg
- 1/2 cups Buttermilk
- 1/4 cups Half-and-Half (fat Free Is Fine)
- FOR THE GLAZE:
- 1/2 cups Powdered Sugar
- 1 Tablespoon Milk
- 1/4 teaspoons Pumpkin Pie Spice
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, pumpkin pie spice and cinnamon. Cut in the butter using a food processor, fork or pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a separate bowl, combine the grated ginger, vanilla, egg, buttermilk and half-and-half. Add the wet ingredients into the butter/flour mixture and mix until incorporated.
- Spoon freeform scones onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake in a preheated 350u0b0F oven for 45-50 minutes or until lightly golden brown. Note that the dough will spread in the oven.
- When done, remove from the oven and cut out whatever shape you like with a cookie or scone cutter while the scones are still warm. Allow to cool completely.
- Mix together the glaze ingredients and spoon over cooled scones.
- Note that if you don't have pumpkin pie spice, you can use equal amounts of clove and nutmeg.
