PUMPKIN-GINGER OAT SCONES



Pumpkin-Ginger Oat Scones image

Pumpkin purée softens oats in this hearty mix. Together, they give scones a lasting richness that doesn't dry out, while more oats sprinkled on top give the crust a nutty crunch. Bits of candied ginger dot the scones, each delivering a hit of chewy heat that livens up pumpkin's mild sweetness.

Provided by Genevieve Ko

Time 45m

Yield 12 scones

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 1/4 cups/290 grams all-purpose flour, plus more for sprinkling
1/2 cup/50 grams old-fashioned oats, plus more for sprinkling
1/2 cup/100 grams sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
1/2 cup/115 grams cold unsalted butter, cut into thin slices
3/4 cup/90 grams finely chopped crystallized ginger
3/4 cup/170 grams canned pumpkin purée
2 large eggs

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, whisk the flour, oats, sugar, baking powder, salt and spice.
  • Add the butter and toss to coat with the dry ingredients. Using your fingers or a pastry cutter, press and cut in the butter until coarse crumbs form and some peanut-size pieces remain. Toss in the ginger until evenly coated.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk the pumpkin and eggs until smooth. Add to the dry ingredients and mix with a fork until no dry bits remain and mixture forms a mass.
  • Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly flour. Divide the dough mass into two even pieces in the bowl and dump each piece onto the prepared sheet on opposite sides. Dampen your hands and press each piece into 3/4-inch-thick rounds (about 6 inches in diameter). Refrigerate or freeze until stiff.
  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. When the oven is ready, take out the dough and cut each round into 6 even wedges using a sharp knife or bench scraper. Nudge the wedges about 1 inch apart. Sprinkle the tops with oats.
  • Bake until golden brown and firm when gently pressed, 20 to 22 minutes. To see if they're cooked through, tear one open immediately to make sure there's no wetness in the center. If there is, return the pan to the oven for a few minutes.
  • Cool on the pan on a rack for 5 minutes. Serve warm or room temperature, wrapped in a napkin to eat out of hand.

HEALTHY PUMPKIN GINGER BREAD



Healthy Pumpkin Ginger Bread image

Super moist and delicious pumpkin ginger bread. Made with healthy additions like applesauce, maple syrup, whole wheat flour, and pomegranate seeds. All thanks to Joy Bauer and her latest book, Joy's Simple Food Remedies

Provided by Tieghan Gerard

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 cup whole milk ((Joy uses almond milk))
1 can (15 ounce) pumpkin puree
1 tablespoon canola oil
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/2 cup real maple syrup
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons ground ginger
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup pomegranate seeds, plus more for serving

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Mist a 9x5 inch loaf pan with oil.2. Add the eggs, milk, pumpkin, oil, applesauce, maple syrup, and vanilla to a medium bowl and whisk until combined. 3. Add the flours, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, baking soda, and baking powder to a large bowl and mix well. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and stir until just combined. Gently fold in the pomegranate seeds (do not overmix). 4. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and tap the bottom a few times on the counter to even everything out. Bake on a middle rack for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean (60 minutes will result in a super moist, cake like consistency; 65-plus minutes will still create a moist but firmer consistency. Both textures are delicious). Let the bread cool for at least 10 minutes. Slice and serve with pomegranate seeds.

SQUIDGY PUMPKIN & GINGER LOAF



Squidgy pumpkin & ginger loaf image

Use up your Halloween pumpkin leftovers in this dense, sticky loaf cake which pairs the sweet earthiness of squash with warming ginger

Provided by Sarah Cook

Categories     Afternoon tea, Dessert, Treat

Time 1h15m

Yield Cuts into 10-12 slices

Number Of Ingredients 12

250g chunk of pumpkin or squash flesh (the scoopings from your Halloween pumpkin are perfect)
50g black treacle
140g golden syrup
140g light soft brown sugar
100ml semi-skimmed milk
100g cold butter , diced, plus extra for greasing
225g self-raising flour
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
1 tbsp ground ginger
2 tsp mixed spice
2 medium eggs , beaten
8-10 chunks crystallised ginger , thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Put the pumpkin or squash in a microwave- proof bowl with a dribble of water. Cover with cling film, pierce with a couple of holes and cook in a microwave on High for 5-10 mins, or until the pumpkin is soft and mashable. Drain off the water and mash until smooth. Put the treacle, syrup, sugar and milk in a pan and heat gently until the sugar has dissolved.
  • Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Grease and line a 900g loaf tin with a strip of baking parchment. Sift the flour, bicarb, spices and a pinch of salt into a bowl together. Tip in the diced butter and rub with your fingertips until no big lumps remain.
  • Whisk the mash and the egg into the lukewarm syrupy mixture, then stir everything into the dry ingredients. Pour the batter into the prepared tin, scatter with most of the crystallised ginger and bake for 45 mins until a skewer poked into the centre comes out with just moist crumbs attached. Scatter over the remaining sliced ginger to stick, then cool in the tin. This cake tastes delicious once thoroughly cooled and sliced, but even better if wrapped in parchment and foil, and left for a couple of days to mature. Perfect with a cuppa, smeared with some butter.
