Equipment

Ingredients

2 cups flour
½ cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup butter frozen
⅓ cup pumpkin puree
4 tablespoon heavy cream divided
1 large egg
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla
1 tablespoon coarse sugar
½ cup white chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400˚F.
Mix together flour, brown sugar, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, and salt.
Grate the frozen butter and stir into the flour mixture with a fork. (Or you cut cold butter into the dry ingredients until crumbly.)
In a separate bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, 3 tablespoons of heavy cream, egg, and vanilla.
Add to the flour mixture and stir with a fork until the mixture comes together. Do not over mix.
Turn out onto a floured silicone mat. Knead a couple of times until you can form an 8-inch circle.
Cut into 8 wedges with a floured knife. Separate the wedges and place them on a parchment-covered baking sheet. Brush each scone with the remaining tablespoon of heavy cream. Sprinkle the tops with coarse sugar.
Bake at 400°F for 14 to 16 minutes until the edges start to brown.
Once the scones have cooled, melt the white chocolate chips and drizzle over the scones.
