• 3 1/2 tsp Teeny Tiny Spice Company. Garam Masala

• 5 Tbs Cold butter

• 1/2 C Chopped crystallized ginger

• 1 C Heavy cream

 Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 425º F and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.

2. Place flour, baking powder, sugar, salt and Garam Masala in a large bowl and whisk together. Alternatively, place in food processor and process with six 1-sec pulses.

8. Brush tops of scones with heavy cream and sprinkle with sugar.

9. Bake at 425º F for 15-17 minutes until tops are light brown.
