How to Make Orange Pumpkin Scone Cookie Cut Outs

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
  3. In a separate bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the pumpkin puree, orange zest, and orange extract.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead for a few seconds. Roll out the dough to about 1/2 inch thickness.
  6. Use your favorite cookie cutters (Halloween shapes are especially fun!) to cut out the cookies.
  7. Place cookies onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 1 inch between each cookie.
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
