BED AND BREAKFAST SPICED PUMPKIN SCONES WITH HONEY BUTTER
Gorgeous spiced pumpkin scones with honey butter - what a treat for the tea-time table during autumn and winter. I have made these twice now and love the combination of the honey butter with the scones, although they are also delicious with plain unsalted butter. This recipe came from an Australian "Olive" magazine that was sent to me, apparently, Queensland is famous for its blue pumpkins where this recipe originates from - I added the spices as well as the honey butter! A wonderful recipe for the cooler months, but as it uses tinned or frozen pumpkin, these can be made all year around. If you don't want to serve these with the honey butter, just split them whilst warm and spread with normal butter or cream. Mixed spice is a British spice mixture, I have a recipe for this on RZ: Recipe #266688

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.

Tips:
- Choose the right pumpkin: Use a sugar pumpkin or pie pumpkin for the best flavor and texture. Field pumpkins are not as flavorful and have a stringy texture.
- Roast the pumpkin: Roasting the pumpkin brings out its natural sweetness and flavor. You can roast the pumpkin in the oven or in a slow cooker.
- Use a food processor or blender: A food processor or blender will make quick work of pureeing the pumpkin. You can also use a potato masher, but it will take a little more time.
- Add spices and flavorings: Feel free to experiment with different spices and flavorings to create your own unique pumpkin butter. Some popular additions include cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and vanilla extract.
- Use honey or maple syrup: Honey or maple syrup adds sweetness and flavor to the pumpkin butter. You can also use sugar, but it will be less flavorful.
- Canning: If you want to store the pumpkin butter for longer than a few weeks, you can can it. Canning is a process of heating the pumpkin butter to a high temperature and then sealing it in jars.
Conclusion:
Pumpkin butter is a delicious and versatile spread that can be enjoyed on toast, crackers, or fruit. It can also be used as an ingredient in baking or as a glaze for roasted vegetables. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make your own pumpkin butter at home in no time.
