Spicy Pumpkin Scones Recipes

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.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Combine flour, 7 tablespoons sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Cut in 4 tablespoons butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
• Beat egg using a whisk in a bowl. Add pumpkin, sour cream, and ginger; beat until well blended. Stir pumpkin mixture into the flour mixture until a soft dough has formed.
• Turn dough out onto a well-floured surface and knead gently 10 times. Roll or gently pat into a 9x6-inch rectangle. Cut dough into 6 squares. Cut each square in 1/2 diagonally, making 12 triangles.
• Place the dough triangles 2 inches apart on an ungreased baking sheet. Melt remaining tablespoon of butter and brush over scones. Sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon sugar.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a scone comes out clean, 10 to 12 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, cloves, allspice, and ginger in a large bowl. Mix butter into the flour mixture with your hands until it resembles coarse bread crumbs.
• Combine pumpkin, brown sugar, cream, and egg in a medium bowl with a whisk. Fold into flour mixture with a large spoon until the dry bits at the bottom of the bowl have been incorporated.
• Pat the mixture into a ball with your hands and turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Continue to shape into a ball; gently press down and out, forming the dough into a flattened circle, about 1 to 1 1/2 inches thick. If the edges start to crack, just place the palm of your hand against the edge and gently press the dough back in.
• Dust a large, sharp knife with flour and cut the dough into 6 triangles. Slide the knife under each to help you lift and transfer them to the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until scones begin to turn light brown in color, 12 to 16 minutes. Place on a wire rack to cool.
• While scones are cooling, mix confectioners' sugar, milk, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, ginger, and cloves for glaze together in a small bowl. Drizzle over scones while they are still warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°.
• In a big bowl, combine the first 8 ingredients; cut in butter with a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse crumbs; mix in raisins.
• In a small bowl, mix egg, pumpkin, and buttermilk; add to flour mixture and mix until blended and a soft dough forms.
• Turn out dough onto a floured work surface and roll into a circle ¾ inches thick.
• Cut out rounds using 2-inch round cookie cutter and place on ungreased baking sheet.
• Reroll scraps and repeat.
• Brush tops with the beaten egg white and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
• Cool slightly on wire rack and serve warm.

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.
