BED AND BREAKFAST SPICED PUMPKIN SCONES WITH HONEY BUTTER



Bed and Breakfast Spiced Pumpkin Scones With Honey Butter image

Gorgeous spiced pumpkin scones with honey butter - what a treat for the tea-time table during autumn and winter. I have made these twice now and love the combination of the honey butter with the scones, although they are also delicious with plain unsalted butter. This recipe came from an Australian "Olive" magazine that was sent to me, apparently, Queensland is famous for its blue pumpkins where this recipe originates from - I added the spices as well as the honey butter! A wonderful recipe for the cooler months, but as it uses tinned or frozen pumpkin, these can be made all year around. If you don't want to serve these with the honey butter, just split them whilst warm and spread with normal butter or cream. Mixed spice is a British spice mixture, I have a recipe for this on RZ: Recipe #266688

4 tablespoons softened butter
4 tablespoons caster sugar

BED & BREAKFAST SCONES



Bed & Breakfast Scones image

Started making these years ago; when oldest daughter was in high school, she'd request these whenever a friend stayed over for the weekend. Serve with Recipe #230378, Recipe #230379, Recipe #208953 or your favorite jam with butter. TIME-SAVING TIP: Line up several zip-top, quart-size bags (I do 10 at a time [10 bags = 10 recipes]), then pour in the dry ingredients, then label and store in a cool, dark spot in the pantry. At meal-time, dump one bag into mixing bowl and proceed. This works for pancakes, cornbread and pizza, too! Easy for the kids to whip a batch together, too!

My friend Patti makes these all the time and I just kept forgetting to ask for the recipe so onward and upward research! Found a lot of recipes all basically the same so I did the normal and combined a couple and came up with this I hope you enjoy these. My hubby loves them but I doubt they will ever be as good as...

Provided by Sandy Griffin

Categories     Breakfast

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 c all purpose flour
1/4 c sugar
1 Tbsp baking powder sifted
1/2 tsp salt
6 Tbsp butter, frozen in little squares
1/3 c cranberries or blueberries (dried)
1 egg, beaten
1/2 c heavy cream, cold
2 Tbsp heavy cream, cold (for the top)
sugar sprinkles for the top

Steps:

  • 1. Add the dry ingredients being sure to sift the baking powder to make sure there will be no brown spots in your scones.
  • 2. Cut in the frozen butter or just dig in and mush it up, but you have to work very quickly. You DO NOT want to melt your butter or make it soft. It is part of what makes them rise. Make sure everything is cold you work with. This is where I made a change. I grated the butter then tossed it in the flour, turned on the beater for about 30 seconds added the wet ingredients and the berries and then once almost all was wet about 45 seconds dumped it onto a cutting sheet. Kneading it about one minute then formed my flat round and cut it. It was faster and easier.
  • 3. Mix the egg with the 1/2 cup of cream and beat together until creamy.
  • 4. Add all the wet ingredients to the dry and throw in the berries at this time. Work quickly then knead a little bit in the bowl just to make a nice ball.
  • 5. Flatten the ball on a clean surface and use VERY little flour into 3/4 inch thick 8 inch circle. Cut into 8 pieces.
  • 6. Move to your baking sheet. Brush with the last two tablespoons of cream then sprinkle on the coarse sugar sprinkles.
  • 7. Bake in a PRE HEATED oven to 425 for 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool! Wrap up and wait for breakfast Yummy! Enjoy

Tips:

  • Choose the right flour: All-purpose flour is a good option for beginners, but you can also use bread flour for a chewier scone or cake flour for a lighter, more tender scone.
  • Use cold butter: Cold butter will help to create flaky layers in your scones. If you use softened butter, your scones will be more dense.
  • Work the dough quickly: Overworking the dough will make your scones tough. Mix the ingredients just until they come together, then shape and bake them.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help to firm up the butter and make the scones easier to handle. You can chill the dough for up to 3 days before baking.
  • Bake the scones at a high temperature: A high oven temperature will help to create a crispy exterior and a fluffy interior. Bake the scones at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
  • Let the scones cool before serving: Let the scones cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. This will help them to set and make them easier to handle.

Conclusion:

Scones are a delicious and versatile breakfast pastry that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a variety of flavors and toppings to choose from, there's sure to be a scone that everyone will love. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced baker, these tips will help you make perfect scones every time.
