Time 35m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground allspice
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon ground ginger
¼ teaspoon baking soda
5 tablespoons cold butter, cut into cubes
½ cup pumpkin puree
¼ cup light sour cream
¼ cup white sugar
1 egg
½ cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon pumpkin puree
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Whisk pastry flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, allspice, salt, nutmeg, ginger, and baking soda together in a bowl. Cut cold butter into flour mixture using a pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles small crumbs.
  • Mix 1/2 cup pumpkin puree, sour cream, white sugar, and egg together in a separate bowl; stir into flour mixture just until dough forms. Gently roll dough into a circle on a floured work surface and cut into wedges or use fall-inspired cookie cutters. Arrange scones on a baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 15 minutes.
  • Mix confectioners' sugar, 1 tablespoon pumpkin puree, and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon together in a bowl until glaze is smooth; spread over warm scones.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted the pecans for chocolate chips. They turned out great!

These pumpkin scones are a bit too dense for my taste. I prefer a lighter, fluffier scone.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my scones turned out really dry. Maybe I overmixed the dough?
