Pumpkin Scones (makes 1 dozen)
Ingredients:
2 cups of flour
1/3 cup sugar
1 T. baking powder
1/4 t. salt
1/2 t. ground cinnamon
1/2 t. ground nutmeg
1/4 t. ground cloves
1/4 t. ground ginger
6 T. cold butter
1/2 cup canned pumpkin
1/2 t. vanilla
3 T half and half
1 large egg
TO MAKE THE SCONES:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Lightly oil a baking sheet or line with parchment paper.
- Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and spices in a large bowl. Using a pastry knife or fork, cut butter into the dry ingredients until mixture is crumbly and no chunks of butter are obvious. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together pumpkin, half and half, vanilla and egg. Fold wet ingredients into dry ingredients. Form the dough into a ball.
- Split dough in half and pat out dough onto a lightly floured surface and form it into a 1-inch thick circle Use a large knife or a pizza cutter to slice the dough into six pieces. Do the same with the other half. Place on prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 14–16 minutes. Scones should begin to turn light brown. Place on wire rack to cool.
- Glaze scones (mix one cup of powdered sugar and 2 T. milk) or top with some sugar. Enjoy!
