How to Make Pumpkin Scones

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  3. Cut in 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup pumpkin puree, 1 large egg, and 1/2 cup milk.
  5. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently pat into a 1-inch thick circle.
  7. Cut the circle into 8 wedges.
  8. Place the scones onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
  9. While the scones are baking, prepare the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup powdered sugar with 1-2 tablespoons milk until smooth.
  10. Once the scones have cooled slightly, drizzle with the glaze and sprinkle with extra cinnamon.
