Add a photoThese have been in the back of my mind for a while and I finally got around to making them.
And I know I always say it, but really, these are my new favorite. I can say that because I only post my favorites, any recipe that isn’t worthy of the title “scone” is never posted.
These are spicy with the ginger, crisp with the butter and tangy with the sour cream, and your tongue gets these wonderful little hot spots from the candied ginger when you are lucky enough to bite into one.
Heaven.
Ingredients
- 1 cup of sour cream
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 4 cups of flour
- 1 cup of white sugar
- 1/3 cup of chopped candied ginger
- 1 cup of margarine or butter
- 1 egg
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tbsp ginger
Directions
1.
In a large bowl combine all of your dry ingredients. Whisk them together well.
2.
Chop up the ginger.A hint for chopping it, take out the pieces you need and let them air dry for a while. They won’t stick together as much.
3.
Mix your sour cream and baking soda together and let it poof up.
4.
Cut your butter into the flour mixture well.
5.
Stir in that heavenly, rocks my socks candied ginger. Mix it in, then add your beaten egg and sour cream. Combine well, then turn out onto a floured surface.
6.
Since I make scones all the time, I finally figured out an easier way to achieve the circles I need in order to cut those little triangle shapes. Roll your dough into a log .
7.
Then cut the log into three pieces.Take each of those three pieces and turn them onto their cut side.
8.
Then proceed to flatten out with your hand and you honestly get these fantastic, perfect circles.
9.
Then slice each circle into 6 pieces.
10.
Place on a well greased baking sheet and bake in a 350 degree oven for 15-20 minutes, until they are browned and gorgeous.
