6 Servings
Ingredients
| Quantity | Ingredient | |
|---|---|---|
| 2 | cups | White all-purpose flour |
| ¼ | cup | White sugar |
| 2 | teaspoons | Baking powder |
| ½ | teaspoon | Baking soda |
| ½ | teaspoon | Salt |
| 2 | teaspoons | Ground ginger |
| ¼ | cup | Unsalted butter |
| ¼ | cup | Molasses |
| ½ | cup | Nonfat milk |
| 1 | tablespoon | White sugar |
Directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In food processor, blend together flour, sugar, baking powder, soda, salt and ginger. Cut butter into bits and add to processor. Pulse several times until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add molasses and milk and mix briefly until mixture forms a ball. Turn onto lightly floured board and pat flat, about 1-inch thick. Cut into six 3-inch rounds (an empty can works nicely). Place on lightly spray-greased baking sheet. Sprinkle tops with sugar. Bake in preheated oven about 15 to 18 minutes. Cool on rack. (Can be served slightly warm.) Using your fingers, split each shortcake into 2 3-inch rounds. Top bottom half with ⅙ of the Peaches and Cream. Place top half of shortcake over the filling.
Repeat for remaining servings.
