Equipment

• 1 mixing bowl
• 1 baking sheet
• 1 parchment paper
• 1 whisk
• 1 pastry cutter or fork
• 1 rolling pin
• 1 knife or pizza cutter
• 1 small bowl
• 1 spoon

Ingredients

  

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• ½ cup granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ¼ cup unsalted butter Cold and cubed.
• ½ cup canned pumpkin puree
• ¼ cup heavy cream
• 1 egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons milk
• ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

 

• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until combined.
• Add the cold, cubed butter into the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or fork, cut the butter into the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
• In another bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, heavy cream, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
• Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overwork the dough.
• Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently shape into a circle about 1-inch thick. Cut the circle into 8 wedges using a knife or pizza cutter.
• Transfer the wedges to the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until lightly golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
• While the scones are baking, prepare the glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth and pourable.
• Once the scones are done baking, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool slightly. Drizzle the glaze over the warm scones.

Notes

Serve the scones warm or at room temperature.

Scones are best enjoyed the same day but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.

For added flavor, try mixing in chocolate chips or chopped pecans into the dough.
