PUMPKIN-OAT SCONES



Pumpkin-Oat Scones image

A new fall favorite in our house, adapted from both an oat scone recipe and one for pumpkin scones similar to that from a well-known coffee shop. I'm not sure if quick-cooking oats would work; try them at your own risk! If you have Penzeys® Baking Spice, I like to add 1 teaspoon of that and also use a pinch in the icing.

Time 50m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
1 tablespoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ teaspoon ground ginger
½ teaspoon ground cloves
6 tablespoons cold butter
¾ cup pumpkin puree
2 tablespoons cold milk
1 large egg
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon milk, or as needed
1 pinch ground ginger
1 dash ground cinnamon, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Whisk the flour, oats, baking powder, salt, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, nutmeg, 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger, and cloves together in a mixing bowl. Cut the cold butter into the mixture with a pastry blender or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs the size of peas or smaller. Whisk the pumpkin puree, 2 tablespoons cold milk, the egg, and vanilla together in a small bowl; fold into the flour mixture until just blended.
  • Divide dough into two sections on a lightly floured surface. Gather each into a ball and knead about 10-12 times. Flatten balls to 1/2-inch thickness on a non-stick baking sheet. Leave about 2 inches between the rounds. Cut rounds into sixths with a butter knife, but do not separate the wedges.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the bottoms and edges are just golden brown, 12 to 16 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • While the scones cool, mix the confectioners' sugar, 1 tablespoon milk, remaining pinch of ginger, and dash of cinnamon together in a small bowl. Add more milk to thin the frosting as needed. Pour the frosting into a sealable plastic bag. Snip off a corner of the bag and drizzle icing over the cooled scones in a zigzag fashion. The icing will harden as it cools.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and ensure that your scones turn out perfectly.
  • Use Cold Butter: Cold butter is essential for creating flaky scones. When the butter melts in the oven, it creates steam which helps the scones to rise and become light and airy.
  • Don't Overwork the Dough: Overworking the dough will make the scones tough. Mix the ingredients just until they come together, and then stop.
  • Chill the Dough: Chilling the dough before baking helps to develop the flavor and makes the scones easier to handle.
  • Bake the Scones Until Golden Brown: The scones are done baking when they are golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Conclusion:

These pumpkin raisin scones are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or snack. With their moist texture, sweet pumpkin flavor, and chewy raisins, they're sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you're in the mood for something warm and comforting, give these scones a try!
