A sprinkling of sugar tops off these tender treats with a touch of sweetness. I like to serve them hot with butter and jam.Edna Hoffman, Hebron, Indiana Ingredients:
2 cups king arthur unbleached 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 |
Directions:
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. 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. Yield: 1 dozen.
