Cooking Instructions

40 minutes
  1. 1

    First start the scones: preheat your oven to 425°. In a food processor pulse together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, brown sugar and granulated sugar until it’s well blended. If you don’t have a food processor you can whisk by hand in a large mixing bowl and cutting the butter with a pastry cutter).

  2. 2

    In a bowl whisk together chilled pumpkin puree, buttermilk, egg, vanilla extract and honey. Pour mixture into well in flour/butter mixture. Stir mixture with a wooden spoon to incorporate, then knead in bowl (or on work surface) by hand several times to bring mixture together.

  3. 3

    Dust a work surface with flour then invert dough onto surface. Pat and shape dough into an even 8-inch round.
    (dust knife with flour as needed while cutting, it will be fairly sticky).

  4. 4

    Transfer scones to a Silpat or parchment paper lined baking sheet. Brush tops with 1 Tbsp half and half then bake in preheated oven 13 - 15 minutes until tops are golden brown and toothpick inserted into center comes out clean. Transfer to a wire rack and cool 10 minutes (no longer) before spreading with glaze.

  5. 5

    For the glaze: In a mixing bowl whisk together powdered sugar and half and half, adding more half and half as needed to reach desired consistency (it should be fairly thick not runny). Spoon and spread mixture scones to evenly coat tops (use all of it). Let glaze set at room temperature.

  6. 6

    For the pumpkin glaze:
    In a mixing bowl (I just used the one from the glaze above without cleaning out) whisk together powdered sugar, pumpkin puree, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and half and half. Transfer mixture to a small Ziploc bag, seal bag, cut a small tip from corner and drizzle mixture over tops of scones. Allow icing to set. Best served day prepared.
