Pumpkin Scones with Cinnamon Icing
A hot drink and a scone is the perfect way to start the day. Today I’ve got some Pumpkin Scones with Cinnamon Icing to share with you! These pumpkin scones are so good with that great pumpkin flavor with hints of cinnamon and then it’s drizzled with an amazingly easy cinnamon icing.
These fall pumpkin scones have that lovely pumpkin flavor that I can’t get enough of during fall. If you’ve never made a scone, don’t worry… scones are much easier to make than you think. And I will walk you through it.
How to Make Pumpkin Spice Scones
Start by putting your dry ingredients in a bowl. Flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Add the cold butter chunks to the dry ingredients.
Use a pastry cutter or a fork to break down the butter into small pieces.
Then add the pumpkin puree.
Mix in the pumpkin puree.
Time to add the cinnamon.
Mix again. Then add the cream, and mix until it’s just coming together. Then you’ll turn out the dough onto a well-floured surface.
Form into an approximately 8-inch circle. Then use a pizza cutter or knife cut through making 8 scones. Sprinkle the top with cinnamon sugar. Then bake.
After the pumpkin scones have cool at least 20 minutes, cut through again until they are separated.
Drizzle with cinnamon icing and enjoy!
