Pumpkin Scones (Original Recipe)

Servings: 8

Ingredients

Ingredients:

  • 2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp white sugar
  • 5 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 3/4 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ginger
  • 1/8 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/8 tsp ground cloves

Instructions

Directions:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Sift together dry ingredients; flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, all spices. Using a pastry blender, cut in the butter to coat pieces with flour. The mixture should look like coarse crumbs.
  • Mix together the heavy cream, vanilla, and the pumpkin puree in a bowl. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour in the heavy cream and pumpkin puree mixture. Fold everything together just to incorporate.
  • On a lightly floured surface, press dough out into a large circle. Cut the circle into 8 to 12 wedges and place each wedge on an ungreased baking sheet. Brush each wedge with heavy cream and sprinkle some coarse sugar on each wedge if desired.
  • Bake 15-20 minutes until brown.
