Yield Makes 12 scones

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon cardamom pods, crushed and inner seeds ground
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1/4 cup crystallized ginger, chopped in 1/4-inch pieces
3/4 cup sour cream
1/2 cup sugar
4 teaspoons sugar
2 large eggs

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Place the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, the bowl of a food processor, or in a large bowl and mix by hand. Sift ground cardamom seeds into mixture; stir to combine. Add butter and mix until crumbly.
  • Add ginger, sour cream, 1/2 cup sugar, and 1 egg. Mix, blend, or pulse, just until combined; do not overmix.
  • Form 1/3 cup dough into a ball or use a large ice cream scoop, and place dough on prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough, spacing scones about 2 inches apart.
  • In a small bowl, mix together remaining egg with a dash of water. Brush scones with egg mixture and sprinkle evenly with remaining 4 teaspoons sugar. Bake until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes.

Overall, I thought these scones were pretty good. They were a bit dry, but the flavor was good.

These scones were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not a big fan of ginger, but I still enjoyed these scones. The cardamom flavor really shines through.

I would have liked the scones to be a bit more spicy. I think I'll add some extra ginger next time.
