Lunch: Orange Ginger Scones Recipe

Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
4 tablespoons sugar, divided
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup cold butter, cubed
3/4 cup sour cream
1 egg
1-1/2 teaspoons grated orange peel

Instructions

In a large bowl, combine the flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, baking powder, ginger, salt and baking soda. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Whisk sour cream and egg; add to dry ingredients just until moistened. Stir in orange peel.
Turn onto a floured surface; knead 8-10 times. Divide dough in half. Pat each portion into a 7-in. circle; cut each into six wedges.
Separate wedges and place 1 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Sprinkle with remaining sugar. Bake at 400 ° for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned. Serve warm.
