How to Make Ginger Scones The Inn At Little Washington

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ginger.
Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate bowl, whisk together buttermilk, egg, and sugar.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat into a 1-inch thick circle.
Cut the circle into 8 wedges using a sharp knife.
Place the scones onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
Let cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving warm with strawberry jam and tea. Enjoy!
