These scones were a bit too dense for my taste. I think I would have preferred them with a lighter texture.

These scones were a bit dry. I think I would have added more milk or yogurt to the batter.

These scones were good, but not great. The texture was a bit dry and the flavor was bland. I think they would have been better with more pumpkin puree and spices.

These scones were a delight! The pumpkin flavor was perfectly balanced with the sweetness of the berry butter. I added a bit of extra cinnamon and nutmeg to give them a warm, autumnal flavor.
