There is nothing like the warming flavors in this triple ginger gingerbread scones. These make a wonderful addition to your Christmas morning table!
I love all the popular winter flavors, but gingerbread is one of my favorites. Now, I don't like just any gingerbread. I love something with a lighter molasses flavor and heavy on ginger. To me, molasses is just such an overpowering flavor and not one of my favorites. That is why I love these gingerbread scones. It hits both points with a light molasses flavor and a lot of ginger from the use of three types of ginger: powdered, paste, and candied.
The ginger isn't so strong that it clears out your sinuses, but just enough to wake up your tastebuds and warm you from the inside. It's perfect for anyone who loves that big of spice in their life.
Scones tend to get a bad rap and for good reason. Most are tough and are so dry, you need a gallon of milk to pair with it. My scones, on the other hand, defy those two characteristics and are instead moist and incredibly tender. The trick is to not knead the dough, but gently pat it together.
I love pairing these one-bowl gingerbread scones with a bit of salted butter and jam, or even my pomegranate curd for full-on winter flavor. These scones pack a welcome punch of ginger flavor thanks to three types of ginger. Your family will love these gingerbread scones Christmas morning topped with butter and jam.
