How to male Eggless Gingerbread Scones
- In a large bowl whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, gingerbread spice, and nutmeg.
- Add the cold diced butter and using your fingertips, rub the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a separate small bowl whisk with a fork the heavy cream, buttermilk, and vanilla until combined.
- Mix dry and wet ingredients with a fork until the dough comes together. Toss in the pecans and mix gently to incorporate.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface. Form into a disk, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Roll dough into a circle, about 3/4 of an inch thick. Use a round cookie, or biscuit, cutter to cut out about 12 scones, reshaping the dough as needed and using scraps to form new rounds of dough. Transfer to a parchment-lined cookie sheet and pop your tray into your fridge for 15 minutes.
- Brush the scones with heavy cream and bake for about 18 to 20 minutes or until risen and golden brown.
- Drizzle glaze over scones and serve.
