Ginger Scones

Ingredients

All-purpose flour - 2 cups
Sugar - 3 tablespoons
Baking Powder - 1 tablespoon
Salt - ½ teaspoon
Unsalted butter - 2.6 oz
Candied Ginger - 2.5 oz
Sour Cream - 1 container

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Cut the butter into 0.5 cm cubes and chill. In a blender on 'pulse' mode, mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt — about 6 pulses. Evenly distribute the butter pieces and pulse about 12 more times.

Step 2

Add the chopped ginger and mix quickly again. Transfer the dough to a large bowl, add the sour cream, and mix everything with a silicone spatula for 30 seconds.

Step 3

Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead it for about 10 seconds to form a ball. Then place the dough in a round pan with a diameter of 8 inches and evenly spread it out, pressing with your fingers, leaving about 1 cm from the edges. Flip the pan over and carefully remove the dough so it retains its shape. Cut the circle into 8 pieces and place them on a dry baking sheet.
