Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 2 cups All Purpose Flour, Sifted; 1/3 cups White Sugar; 1 Tablespoon Baking Powder; 1/2 teaspoons Salt; 1 teaspoon Powdered Ginger; 1 cup Heavy Cream; 1/2 cups Crystalized Ginger; 2 Tablespoons Heavy Cream; 1 teaspoon Powdered Ginger; 1 Tablespoon White Sugar

1
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
2
Dice up crystallized ginger.
3
In a large bowl, combine all the dry ingredients. Make sure diced ginger is not clumped together.
4
Add the heavy cream.
5
Mix with a spatula until the dough becomes a very sticky ball. The cream should be incorporated into the dough.
6
Remove dough from bowl and form into an 8 to 9 inch disk. It should be 3/4 to 1 inch thick. It will be very sticky to work with so you might want to flour your hands beforehand.
7
Brush the disk lightly with additional cream.
8
Combine extra ginger powder and sugar. Sprinkle the mixture over the disk.
9
Bake for about 10 minutes and remove to score the disk into individual scones. Cut to the bottom, but the disk will not fully separate at this point. Score 6-8 scones into the disk.
10
Bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until golden brown on top. Remove from oven and allow the scones to cool. Then break the disk along the scoring.
11
Serve warm.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
Coconut cream is a reliable plant-based alternative to dairy cream.
