Time 35m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground allspice
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon ground ginger
¼ teaspoon baking soda
5 tablespoons cold butter, cut into cubes
½ cup pumpkin puree
¼ cup light sour cream
¼ cup white sugar
1 egg
½ cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon pumpkin puree
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Whisk pastry flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, allspice, salt, nutmeg, ginger, and baking soda together in a bowl. Cut cold butter into flour mixture using a pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles small crumbs.
  • Mix 1/2 cup pumpkin puree, sour cream, white sugar, and egg together in a separate bowl; stir into flour mixture just until dough forms. Gently roll dough into a circle on a floured work surface and cut into wedges or use fall-inspired cookie cutters. Arrange scones on a baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 15 minutes.
  • Mix confectioners' sugar, 1 tablespoon pumpkin puree, and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon together in a bowl until glaze is smooth; spread over warm scones.

The scones didn't rise very much. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

The scones were a bit dry. I think I overbaked them.

These scones are a bit too sweet for my taste. I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I made these scones gluten-free by using almond flour instead of all-purpose flour.

These scones were a hit! They were light and fluffy, with just the right amount of sweetness. The pumpkin flavor was subtle but noticeable, and the glaze added a nice touch of richness.
