Gingerbread Scones with Maple Glaze

Preheat the oven to 400℉. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and spices. Cut the cold butter into the flour mixture with a pastry cutter until butter the pieces of butter are pea size.

Whisk the cream, egg, vanilla, and molasses in a separate bowl until combined. Pour in the wet ingredient mixture and stir just until the mixture starts to come together.

Turn onto a floured counter and gently knead/press until the dough comes together into a ball. Roll the dough out into a disk about 8 inches in diameter. Cut into 8 scones using a pizza cutter (cut into ¼'s and then each ¼ in ½).

Place the scones on the prepared pan and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the bottoms are golden brown.

Remove from oven and let cool on a wire rack. While the scones are cooling make your icing: Whisk together the melted butter, icing sugar, and maple syrup until combined. Drizzle on top of cooled scones. Enjoy!
