Pumpkin Scones Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Lightly grease cookie sheets.
• Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, spices and salt. In a large bowl, cream together shortening and brown sugar.
• Beat in the pumpkin, yogurt and sour milk.
• Gradually blend in the dry ingredients.
• Turn the dough out onto a floured surface, sprinkle with flour, and knead until smooth.
• Roll out the dough to a thickness of 3/4".
• Using a sharp knife, cut 2" squares and place 1" apart on baking sheets.
• Bake for 12-15 min., or until lightly colored.
• Transfer to wire racks, cover with a clean towel, and let cool.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• In a mixing bowl, beat together butter, sugar, eggs and pumpkin. Stir in flour, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt by hand.
• Roll out into 1/2 inch thickness and cut into rounds. Place on tray close together and bake for 15 to 18 minutes.

Steps:

• For the scones: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a baking mat or parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, baking powder and pumpkin pie spice. Stir to combine. Add the butter pieces, then use a pastry cutter to work the butter and dry ingredients together until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
• In a second bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, cream and eggs. Pour into the flour mixture, stirring gently, until it all comes together into a dough.
• Turn the dough out onto a cutting board or floured surface and use your hands to press it into a 1/2-inch-thick rectangle about 15 inches by 3 inches. Cut into 12 equal triangular wedges.
• Transfer the wedges to the prepared baking sheet, brush the tops with the extra cream and bake until poufy, set and just barely golden, 20 to 23 minutes. Allow to cool completely.
• For the icing: Sift the powdered sugar, then combine with the coffee and butter in a large bowl. Make sure the icing is thick but still pourable; add a splash more coffee if needed to thin.
• Spoon a very generous amount of the icing onto each scone and sprinkle each with the pumpkin pie spice. Allow the icing to set, about 10 minutes. The scones can be served at once or stored in airtight container at room temperature for 1 to 2 days.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, heavy cream, vanilla and egg. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and salt. Using a pastry blender, cut the butter into the flour mixture. Add the pecans and toss to combine. Use a fork to stir in the pumpkin mixture just until you have craggy dough. Do not overmix.
• Tip the dough out onto the prepared baking sheet and pat it into a 6-inch circle. Cut the dough into 8 equal triangles and freeze them for at least 15 minutes. (Once they're frozen, you could transfer them to an airtight container and keep them frozen for up to a month.)
• Spread the scones out on the baking sheet and brush with a bit of cream. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the centers comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool completely, about 1 hour.
• Mix together the cream cheese, confectioners' sugar and milk with an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth. Spread some of the cream cheese mixture on top of each scone and serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the first 7 ingredients. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In another bowl, whisk the eggs, pumpkin and 1/2 cup milk. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. , Turn onto a floured surface; knead 10 times. Divide dough in half. Pat each portion into an 8-in. circle; cut each into 8 wedges. Separate wedges and place 1 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Brush with remaining milk. , Bake at 400° for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Remove to wire racks; cool for 10 minutes. Combine the glaze ingredients; drizzle over scones. Serve warm.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 425°F.
• 2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, salt, ginger, and cinnamon.
• 3. With clean hands, work the butter into the dry mixture until it is thoroughly incorporated and has the consistency of fine breadcrumbs.
• 4. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients, and pour the buttermilk, pumpkin puree, and vanilla extract into the well. Still using your hands, combine the ingredients until all the dry mixture is wet, but do not knead!
• 5. Turn the mixture onto a floured surface and gather the dough together. Gently pat the dough to make a disk about 1 1/2 inches thick. using a 3-or 3 1/2- inch biscuit cutter, cut out as many scones as you can and lay them on a nonstick baking sheet. Gather the remaining dough together lightly to cut out more scones-just don't knead the dough too much.
• 6. Bake the scones for about 12 minutes, or until lightly browned. Let the scones cool slightly on the baking sheet (about 20 minutes) before glazing them.
• 7. While the scones are cooling, prepare the caramel glaze: Place the butter, brown sugar, lemon juice, and salt in a saucepan over medium heat and whisk gently until the mixture is smooth. Just as the mixture comes to a light boil, add the heavy cream and reduce the heat to low. Whisk well for 2 minutes, or until the glaze is thickened and smooth; then remove the pan from the heat.
• 8. To glaze a scone, hold it by the bottom, dip the top in the warm caramel glaze, and place it back on the baking sheet.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200 C / Gas 6. Lightly grease a baking tray.
• Cream together butter and sugar, then beat in egg, pumpkin puree and 4 tablespoons milk until smooth. Add the mixed spice to the pumpkin mixture, taste and adjust the spices to taste. Stir in flour until a dough forms, then knead a few times on a well floured surface until the dough holds together. Add more flour if dough is too wet or sticky.
• Press the dough into a flat circle 1 to 1.5cm thick. Cut into 6 wedges, place onto greased baking tray, and brush the tops with 2 tablespoons of milk.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown on top and bottom, 10 to 15 minutes. Once done, wrap scones with a clean tea towel and allow to cool for 15 minutes before serving with the honey butter.
• Honey Butter: Mix the butter and honey together, adding the honey a spoon at a time until the right consistency is achieved. Mix well. Best served fresh with the pumpkin scones.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
• Mix flour, white sugar, baking powder, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, salt, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger together in a large bowl; cut in butter and shortening using a pastry cutter or 2 knives until mixture is crumbly.
• Mix pumpkin, egg, and half-and-half together in a separate bowl; stir into flour mixture just until combined. Turn dough onto a floured work surface and shape into a 1/2-inch-thick square. Cut dough into pizza-like wedges and arrange on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer scones to a wire rack to cool.
• Whisk confectioners' sugar, milk, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice together in a bowl; drizzle over scones.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a bowl, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Stir in grated butter. In another bowl, whisk together cream, egg, and pumpkin; stir into flour mixture just until a dough forms but is still crumbly. Pat into a 6-inch round on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush with cream. Cut into 8 wedges, then pull them 2 inches apart.
• Bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Transfer sheet to a wire rack; let cool completely.
• Stir together remaining 1 tablespoon melted butter, pinch of salt, confectioners' sugar, and 2 tablespoons maple syrup until smooth. If glaze is too thick, add up to 1 tablespoon more maple syrup, 1 teaspoon at a time. Dip tops of scones in glaze; transfer to same sheet and allow glaze to set 30 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Put the flour in a bowl and coarsely grate in the butter (dipping the butter into the flour can make it easier to grate; do this as often as you need). Use a butter knife to stir the butter into the flour, then mix in the sugar and spice.
• Add the pumpkin and 80ml milk to the flour mixture and quickly stir everything together. Add more milk if you need to.
• Tip the mixture onto a floured surface and lightly bring together with your hands a couple of times. Roll out until 4cm thick and stamp out rounds with a 7cm cutter. Re-shape the trimmings until all the dough has been used. Place the rounds on a lightly floured baking sheet and brush the tops with any remaining milk. Bake for 10-12 mins until risen and lightly browned.
