Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (chilled)
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tsp pumpkin spice
  • Instructions

  • Preheat your oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  • Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and pumpkin spice.
  • Cut in the butter: Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the cold butter into the dry mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Add wet ingredients: Stir in the pumpkin puree and heavy cream. Mix until just combined – don’t overdo it!
  • Form the dough: Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead gently a few times, then form it into a circle about 1-inch thick.
  • Cut the scones: Use a sharp knife or a pizza cutter to slice the dough into wedges (like a pizza). Place them on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake: Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the tops are lightly golden. Let them cool slightly.
  • Serve warm: These scones are best enjoyed warm, perhaps with a pat of butter or your favorite spread!
