Ginger Scones - The Inn At Little Washington


1. Preheat oven to 375°F.

2. Line two baking sheets with waxed paper.

3. In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, sugar and butter with an electric mixer.

4. Add the milk, 1/4 cup of the cream, the egg yolk, and the candied ginger. Mix until just incorporated (do not overmix.).

5. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured service and roll out to 3/4" thickness.

6. Use a heart-shaped or round cutter to cut out the scones. Place the scones on the baking sheets.

7. Brush the tops of the scones with the remaining 1/4 cup cream. Bake for 4 minutes, rotate, and bake for 5 minutes more.

8. Remove from the sheets with a spatula and cool on a wire rack.

9. Serve with strawberry jam (and clotted cream, if you like.).
