PUMPKIN-CRANBERRY SCONES WITH WHIPPED MAPLE BUTTER
Steps:
- For the scones: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, ginger and salt in a large bowl. Cut the butter into the mixture until it resembles coarse meal.
- Whisk together the buttermilk, pumpkin and vanilla in a medium bowl until smooth. Add the wet mixture to the dry along with the cranberries and candied ginger. Mix until it is all just combined (do not over-mix or the scones will be tough).
- Transfer to a lightly-floured surface and knead the dough gently 4 or 5 times. Pat the dough into a circle that is about 8 inches round and about 1 1/2 inches thick. Cut the circle in half, and then cut each half into 4 pie-shaped wedges (triangles). Place the scones on the baking sheet and brush the tops with the heavy cream.
- Bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out with a few moist crumbs attached, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool on a baking rack for 15 minutes before serving.
- For the butter: Meanwhile, combine the cream, maple syrup and sea salt in the chilled bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Whip on low speed at first, then once the mixture begins to thicken, increase the speed and whip until light and fluffy and has turned into butter. Don't over-mix the butter or it will break.

This recipe other than the glaze is Bobby Flays. My husband saw him making these on one of his shows and asked if I would find and make them. I'm so glad I did, as they turned out beautiful. I couldn't try them, but I trust his judgement when he said they were awesome. I do know they were very moist. I added a bit more...

- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients you use, the better your scones will taste. Look for fresh, organic produce and dairy products whenever possible.
- Don't overwork the dough: Overworking the dough will make your scones tough. Be gentle when mixing the ingredients together and stop as soon as the dough comes together.
- Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help it hold its shape and rise properly in the oven.
- Bake the scones until they are golden brown: The scones are done baking when they are golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the scones cool before serving: Let the scones cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. This will help them set and make them easier to handle.
