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

Ingredients

4 tablespoons softened butter
4 tablespoons caster sugar
1 egg
250 g pumpkin puree (canned, frozen or fresh)
4 tablespoons milk
1 -2 teaspoon mixed spice (If no mixed spice is available, use a mixture of cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves.)

Stir in flour until a dough forms, then knead a few times on a well floured surface until the dough holds together. Add more flour if dough is too wet or sticky.
