Ingredients
- 2 cups of versatile all-purpose flour
- ⅓ cup of rich brown sugar
- A dash of aromatic baking powder
- A pinch of baking soda
- Delicate notes of ground ginger
- Fragrant ground cinnamon
- A hint of pumpkin pie spice
- A sprinkle of salt
- A touch of ground nutmeg
- ½ cup of unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
- ⅓ cup of plump raisins, for an optional fruity burst
- ¼ cup of finely chopped toasted pecans, for an optional nutty crunch
- ½ cup of smooth pure pumpkin puree
- ⅓ cup of creamy buttermilk, or more if required
- 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract for a depth of flavor
- For the Egg Wash:
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon of milk
- A sprinkle of coarse sugar, as desired
- For the Icing:
- ½ cup of powdered sugar, or to taste
- 2 tablespoons of milk for a creamy texture
- 1 tablespoon of rich molasses for depth
- A touch of ground ginger
- A hint of ground cinnamon
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) and preparing a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, salt, and nutmeg. Use a pastry blender or fork to blend in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add in raisins and pecans for a flavorful touch.
Step 3
In another bowl, whisk together pumpkin puree, buttermilk, and vanilla extract. Gently fold this wet mixture into the dry ingredients using a wooden spoon, being careful not to overmix. The dough should just come together.
Step 4
Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead it gently a few times. Shape it into a circle, approximately 7 inches wide and 1 1/2 inches thick. Divide the circle in half, then into 4 triangular wedges. Place the scones on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 5
Prepare an egg wash by whisking an egg with a bit of milk. Brush this mixture over the tops of the scones before generously sprinkling them with coarse sugar.
Step 6
Bake the scones in the preheated oven until they turn a lovely golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, which should take around 20 minutes. Once baked, transfer the scones (still on the parchment paper) to a counter or wire rack to cool.
Step 7
While the scones cool, create a delectable icing by mixing powdered sugar, milk, molasses, ginger, and cinnamon in a small saucepan. Heat the mixture until it boils, then let it cool slightly before drizzling it over the scones. Allow the icing to set before serving these delightful treats.
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. Keep your pumpkin puree in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain its freshness and flavor.
- 2. Store your ginger in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent it from losing its pungent taste.
