Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet or line with parchment paper. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a large bowl, beat together the sugar, softened butter, and vanilla extract using an electric mixer until light and fluffy. (3 minutes)

03

Step

Add the lightly beaten egg and mix until well combined. (1 minute)

04

Step

In a separate bowl, whisk together the self-rising flour, pumpkin pie spice, and salt. (2 minutes)

05

Step

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the pumpkin puree, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; do not overmix. The dough will be slightly sticky. (5 minutes)

06

Step

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat it into a 1-inch thick square or circle. (2 minutes)

07

Step

Using a sharp knife or cookie cutter, cut the dough into 1-inch squares or desired shapes. (3 minutes)

08

Step

Arrange the scones on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one. (1 minute)

09

Step

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown and risen. (15 minutes)

10

Step

Let the scones cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. (5 minutes)

For best results, use cold butter and handle the dough as little as possible to keep the scones tender.
Feel free to add a simple glaze on top once cooled. A mixture of powdered sugar and milk, flavored with vanilla or pumpkin spice, works perfectly.
These scones are best enjoyed fresh, but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
If you don't have self-rising flour, you can make your own by combining 2 cups all-purpose flour with 3 teaspoons baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt.

    The pumpkin spice flavor is just right – not too overpowering. Great for a fall brunch!
