Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp ground cloves
  • 1/4 tsp ground ginger
  • 6 tbsp cold butter, cut into cubes
  • 1/2 cup canned pumpkin
  • 3 tbsp heavy cream
  • 1 large egg

Spiced Glaze

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 3 tbsp milk
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1 pinch ground ginger
  • 1 pinch ground cloves

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
  • In a food processor, mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and ginger. Add the cubed butter and mix again until the texture resembles coarse cornmeal, about 30 seconds.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the pumpkin, heavy cream and egg. Pour the flour mixture into a large bowl. Make a well in the center and pour in the wet ingredients. Fold and knead the dough until you can form a ball. Flatten dough and make into a circle, about 1 inch thick. Use a sharp knife and cut into 8 pieces.
  • Place scones on parchment paper lined baking sheets, and bake for approximately 15 minutes, until golden brown and toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  • Move scones to wire rack to cool.
  • While the scones are cooling, make the spiced glaze. Mix all the spiced glaze ingredients in a bowl with a spoon. You may need to add more milk to get the right consistency on your glaze. Then pour the glaze into a piping bag, cut off a small point at the tip and drizzle the glaze on the scones in a zigzag pattern.
