Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet. (5 minutes)
In a medium bowl, whisk together the baking mix, sugar, pumpkin pie spice, and ginger. (3 minutes)
Add the molasses, applesauce, and egg, mixing until a soft dough forms. (2 minutes)
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead about 10 times, or until smooth. (5 minutes)
Place the dough onto the prepared baking sheet and pat it into a 10-inch circle. (2 minutes)
Bake for 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. (15 minutes)
While still warm, cut the gingerbread circle into wedges and serve immediately. Pairs beautifully with vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
