Comment préparer Ginger Shortcakes With Cranberry Pear Compote

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. For the shortcakes: In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  3. Cut in 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter and 1/4 cup cold vegetable shortening using a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup heavy cream and 1 large egg. Gently fold into the flour mixture until just combined; don't overmix.
  5. Using a 1/3 cup measuring cup, scoop out the dough and form into 6 shortcakes on the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Brush the tops of the shortcakes with 1 tablespoon heavy cream and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon turbinado sugar.
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
  8. Remove from oven and let cool on a wire rack.
  9. For the compote: In a medium saucepan, combine 2 ripe but firm pears, peeled, cored, and sliced (about 2 cups), 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, and 1 cinnamon stick.
  10. Cook over medium heat until the sugar dissolves, about 2 minutes.
  11. Add 2 cups fresh cranberries and 1/2 cup ginger ale. Cover and simmer until the cranberries burst and the sauce thickens, about 10 minutes.
  12. Stir in the remaining 1 cup fresh cranberries and 2 tablespoons light corn syrup.
  13. For the orange cream: In a small bowl, beat 1 cup heavy cream with 1 teaspoon orange extract using an electric mixer or whisk until soft peaks form.
  14. To serve: Warm the shortcakes. Top each shortcake with a generous spoonful of cranberry pear compote, dollop of orange cream, and garnish with sifted powdered sugar and orange zest.
