Pumpkin Oatmeal Scones image

In looking for a recipe for scones that combined pumpkin and oats, I was surprised at how few I found. Since I have an extreme distaste for recipes that use just part of a can of anything, I made sure mine would use up the whole can of pumpkin. This one is lightly sweet, moist, and still pretty light. My kids love them. Enjoy them warm from the oven or freeze them and take them to work to enjoy with your morning coffee.

Time 40m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup old-fashioned oats
½ cup wheat germ
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
6 tablespoons cold butter
1 (15 ounce) can 100% pure pumpkin puree
1 cup milk
½ cup brown sugar
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons raw sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.
  • Mix flours, oats, wheat germ, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg together in a medium bowl. Cut in butter with a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse sand.
  • Combine pumpkin, milk, brown sugar, egg, and vanilla extract in a small bowl. Add to the flour mixture and mix until dough is moistened and just combined.
  • Divide dough evenly between the prepared baking sheets. Flatten into 8-inch circles 1/2- to 3/4-inch high. Score each circle into 6 wedges with a butter knife. Sprinkle with raw sugar.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until edges are lightly browned, 14 to 17 minutes. Be careful not to overbake. Cool on the cookie sheets for 10 minutes. Serve warm.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my scones didn't turn out well. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These scones were a bit too crumbly for my taste. I think I'll try using a different recipe next time.

I found these scones to be a bit dry. I think I'll try adding a little more butter or milk next time.

These scones are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I wasn't sure how I would like the combination of pumpkin and oatmeal, but these scones were surprisingly delicious! I'll definitely be making them again.

These scones are perfect for a fall breakfast or snack. They're also great for freezing, so you can always have a warm scone on hand.

I love the addition of oatmeal in these scones. It gives them a nice texture and makes them more filling.

These scones are a great way to use up leftover pumpkin puree. They're also a nice change from the usual oatmeal cookie.

I've made these scones twice now, and they've turned out perfectly both times. They're so easy to make, and they always disappear quickly!
