-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter -- cut into small pieces
1 cup old-fashioned oats
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1/4 cup crystallized ginger -- finely chopped
1 large egg
1 tablespoon heavy cream
Heat oven to 425F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and
salt. Add the butter and, using a pastry blender or two knives, cut
it in until the mixture forms small crumbs. Add the oats,
cranberries, and ginger and toss to combine. Make a well in the
center of the mixture.
In a bowl, whisk together the egg and 1/2 cup heavy cream. Add to the
flour mixture and, using a fork, gently stir until incorporated (do
not overmix). Bring the dough together into a ball.
On a lightly floured surface, shape the dough into an 8- by 4"
rectangle (about 1" thick). Cut into eight 2" rectangles, separate
and transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Brush tops with the
remaining tablespoon cream and sprinkle with additional oats, if
desired. Bake until golden brown, 12 to 14 minutes.
Yields: 8 scones
Description:
"The tart cranberries, hearty oats, and warm, spicy ginger in
