1 cup (250ml) ginger beer

1 cup (250ml) pure cream

1 tablespoon honey

1 tablespoon milk, for brushing

Method

1.Preheat oven to 210°C or 190°C fan. Spray a 20cm x 30cm slice pan with oil and dust with flour.

2.Sift flour into a large bowl. Make a well at centre. Stir in banana, glace‚ ginger and ground ginger. Mix ginger beer, cream and honey in a jug, Pour into flour mixture and, using a flat-bladed knife, mix gently until just combined. Dough will have a sticky consistency.

3.Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Using lightly floured hands, bring dough together to form a 4cm-thick round. Using a floured 7cm round pastry cutter, cut 12 rounds from dough.

4.Place scones into prepared pan, just touching side by side. Brush tops with milk. Bake for 15-18 mins, until golden.

5.Meanwhile, using an electric mixer, beat butter for 3-4 mins, until light and fluffy. Add icing sugar and beat to combine. Serve with scones.
