Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- ¾ cup canned pumpkin puree
- ½ cup heavy cream
- 1 large egg
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, and salt until well combined.
- Cut in the butter using a pastry cutter or two forks until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- In another bowl, mix the pumpkin puree, heavy cream, and egg. Pour this mixture into the dry ingredients and gently stir until combined.

- Bake for 15-20 minutes or until lightly golden on top.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
For perfectly flaky scones, ensure the butter is cold! You can also freeze the butter for about 15 minutes before using.
