Ingredients
dry ingredients
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
- 1/3 cup dark brown sugar packed
- 3/4 Tbsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon heaping
- 1/4 tsp ground ginger heaping
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg heaping
- 1/4 tsp ground clove heaping
butter
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) chilled butter, diced
wet ingredients
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1/2 cup canned pumpkin (not pie filling)
- 1/3 cup buttermilk or cream
glaze
- 1 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 3 Tbsp buttermilk (you can also use regular milk)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- chopped pecans for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400F.
- Put all the dry ingredients into the bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade. Pulse several times to combine.
- Add the chilled butter and pulse until the mixture becomes coarsely crumbled and the butter is well distributed.
- Whisk together the wet ingredients. While pulsing the machine, pour in the liquid and process just until combined. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and bring it together into a 6 inch disk with floured hands. Cut the disk into 6 triangles, and place the scones on a parchment or silpat lined baking sheet.
- Bake 15-18 minutes, until scones are risen and just turning golden, don't over-bake.
- Let cool on a rack before glazing.
- Whisk together the glaze ingredients and adjust the consistency if you need to by adding more milk or more sugar. Spread it over the cooled scones and top with toasted pecans.
