Ingredients

  • Scones
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 7 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp ground cloves
  • 1/4 tsp ground ginger
  • 6 tbsp cold butter
  • 1/2 cup canned pumpkin
  • 3 tbsp Pumpkin Spice Liquid Coffee-mate or Half and Half
  • 1 large egg
  • Coffee Powdered Sugar Glaze
  • 1 cup plus 1 tbsp powdered sugar
  • 2 tbsp cold coffee or milk
  • Pumpkin Spiced Glaze
  • 1 cup plus 3 tbsp powdered sugar
  • 2 tbsp Pumpkin Spice Liquid Coffee-mate or milk
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1 pinch ground ginger
  • 1 pinch ground cloves

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425F, line a baking sheet with parchment or a Silpat mat.
  • Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and spices in a food processor. Add cold butter and combine until chunks of butter are no longer noticeable. (You can do this by hand with a fork if you don't have a food processor)
  • In a separate bowl, combine together the pumpkin, half and half, and egg. Stir ingredients until well combined. Fold wet ingredients into dry ingredients. Form the dough into a ball.
  • Pat out dough onto a lightly floured surface and form it into a 3 inch by 9 inch rectangle. The rectangle should be about an inch thick. Using a pizza cutter, slice the dough twice through the width, making three equal portions. Cut each of the portions in an X pattern (four pieces) so you end up with 12 triangular slices of dough. Bake for 14–16 minutes or until scones turn light brown.
  • Coffee Glaze:
  • Mix the powdered sugar and 2 tbsp cold coffee until smooth. When scones are cool, use a brush to spread plain glaze over the top of each scone.
  • Pumpkin Glaze:
  • Combine all of the ingredients for the spiced icing. Drizzle over each scone and allow the icing to dry before serving.
